    About Rachel

    Rachel Walters is a licensed clinical social worker who offers practical, strengths-based support for people facing big life changes. She holds LCSW and CSW credentials and focuses on clear, down-to-earth conversations to help people find steadier footing.

    She centers sessions on collaboration and respect. Rachel uses motivational interviewing to help people clarify what matters to them. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, and mindfulness to address stress, anxiety, and depression.

    Rachel has six years of clinical experience and has worked with marginalized youth, young adults, and young parenting women. She helps people manage trauma and post-traumatic stress, cope with housing or financial instability, and handle parenting challenges that come up during major transitions.

    In sessions she aims to be compassionate and nonjudgmental. Conversations focus on building practical skills, safety, and longer-term stability rather than quick fixes. She pays attention to cultural context and the realities people live in.

    Rachel also brings experience teaching and supervising in social work. That background shapes her approach to education and empowerment in therapy. If someone wants help sorting priorities, improving relationships, managing ADHD symptoms, or finding purpose, she works with them to set realistic goals and steps.

    Rachel practices in Georgia and offers therapy in English. Before booking, readers should confirm the current session options and scheduling details.

  2. How Rachel’s approaches translate to online work

    Rachel draws on motivational interviewing to help people find motivation for change by talking through values and small steps. This approach is useful when someone feels stuck or unsure what to try next. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that align with personal values, often helping with anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rachel collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time based on what helps most, so therapy stays tailored and practical.

    The therapist's biography does not specify which online session formats are used, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. These practical benefits can help people keep momentum between sessions while working on skills from ACT, motivational interviewing, CBT, or mindfulness in everyday life.
