About Rachael
Rachael Morgan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 22 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship problems, addiction, grief, and family of origin issues. She also supports people facing life changes, parenting strain, and challenges linked to ADHD, bipolar disorder, and caregiving stress.
Rachael uses a client-centered approach that focuses on what matters most to each person. She blends practical skills from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy with mindfulness and trauma-focused techniques. Sessions are conversational and oriented toward skills practice and short-term goals.
In a typical session she listens to immediate problems, helps sort out unhelpful thinking, and suggests simple behavioral steps to try between meetings. She also works on emotion regulation skills and communication patterns when relationships or family dynamics are the core concern. Work can include addressing abandonment, attachment, adoption and foster care issues, and body image or eating concerns.
Rachael has long experience with LGBTQ concerns and with people who have co-occurring substance use or complex diagnoses. She often uses positivity and skills training to build self-esteem and day-to-day coping. The focus is on small, manageable changes rather than sweeping promises.
People who meet with Rachael can expect a straightforward, practical style. She helps identify goals, practices new skills in session, and sets doable steps to carry forward between meetings. If someone wants to explore whether her approach fits, the next step is to complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How Rachael’s approaches translate to online sessions
Rachael blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. Client-centered work focuses on the person’s priorities and what matters right now. CBT looks at thoughts and behaviors and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. DBT adds skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication, useful for relationship and family pattern work.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client will review goals, try techniques, and decide which methods fit best. That collaborative process helps shape which skills and practices become part of sessions going forward.
The practical benefits of online work can include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. Online sessions can make it simpler to maintain continuity during relocations or travel and can reduce time spent commuting.
