About Rachael
Rachael Cloud is a licensed mental health clinician (LMHC) in Indiana. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, mood swings, addiction concerns, trauma, and problems with self-esteem or intimacy. Her manner is warm and direct so people can talk about hard things without judgment.
Rachael brings 12 years of experience working with a wide range of concerns. She listens first to understand each person's situation, then offers practical strategies that fit daily life.
Background and approach
She avoids labels and focuses on steps a person can use between sessions. Her approach blends several evidence-based methods. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to challenge unhelpful thoughts and build new patterns.
She draws on acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify values and act toward them despite discomfort. Rachael also incorporates dialectical behavior skills and mindfulness practices for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. When trauma is central to a person's story, she uses EMDR as one of the ways to address painful memories and reduce their hold on daily functioning.
Sessions are collaborative and goal oriented. Rachael will work with each person to tailor techniques and set small, achievable steps. She supports parents and people navigating relationship strain, grief, attention differences, and substance concerns while keeping the focus on what the individual wants to change and why.
People who prefer online options can meet via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Rachael guides clients through the practical steps of making therapy fit busy lives and schedules.

Online support
How these approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people name their values and take steps toward them even when feelings are hard. It emphasizes small actions that fit daily life and can reduce avoidance over time. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-world experiments to change behavior and mood. It often uses short exercises and between-session work that fit well into remote formats. EMDR targets distressing memories through structured processing; when appropriate, elements of EMDR can be used in online sessions to reduce the ongoing impact of past trauma.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and may combine methods to suit those needs. That means trying strategies together, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan based on what a person finds most useful.
Online sessions offer flexibility and several ways to connect. Video calls simulate an in-person conversation and allow visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work for brief updates, skill coaching, or when someone's schedule makes synchronous meetings difficult. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or family routines while still using ACT, CBT, DBT skills, or EMDR-focused work when appropriate.
