About Rachel
Rachel Wollmann is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Hawaii who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship struggles. She also supports those facing trauma and abuse, addictions, ADHD, hoarding, obsessive-compulsive concerns, phobias, and challenges with sleep, parenting, anger, intimacy, and compassion fatigue. Rachel speaks English and Korean.
Rachel aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can speak honestly and start making changes. She centers sessions on each person’s strengths and past successes to build confidence for tackling current problems. She also integrates Christian faith into counseling when that is important to the person seeking help.
Her style blends practical conversation with reflective listening. She draws on client-centered methods to follow the person’s lead, and she uses motivational interviewing to help people find motivation for change. She also brings existential questions and mindfulness practices into work with clients, and she incorporates EMDR when appropriate for trauma processing.
Rachel has fifteen years of clinical experience, which she uses to guide straightforward, compassionate conversations rather than long lectures. Sessions are focused on real-life steps and coping strategies that people can try between meetings. She aims to help people feel more capable and less overwhelmed as they work toward their goals.

Remote approaches and how they fit your goals
Motivational interviewing helps people clarify what matters to them and boosts motivation for making changes. It uses open questions and reflective listening to help someone decide what step to take next and is useful for addictions, ambivalence, or making lifestyle changes.
Client-centered therapy focuses on following the person’s lead and offering empathic, nonjudgmental listening. This approach supports self-exploration, confidence, and emotional healing by emphasizing the person’s strengths. Existential therapy invites reflection on meaning, choice, and values, which can help when people feel stuck or face life transitions.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and what has worked before, and then recommend methods to try together. Sessions can shift as needs change, with techniques introduced at a comfortable pace.
The therapist’s biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins that focus on immediate needs. It also makes it simpler to continue work between in-person visits and to use tools such as guided mindfulness or motivational exercises during the appointment. -
