About Rachel
Rachel Williams is an LCSW practicing in Utah who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma. She brings three years of clinical experience to sessions and uses a range of evidence-based approaches, including EMDR and cognitive behavioral techniques. Rachel aims to make therapy straightforward and practical for busy lives.
She favors a person-centered style that starts with listening. Conversations are used to identify what feels most urgent and workable.
Background and approach
From there she and the client craft simple goals and steps that fit daily routines and real-world demands. Rachel often uses mindfulness tools to help people notice patterns of thought and feeling without getting stuck in them. She pairs those practices with cognitive behavioral methods to challenge unhelpful thinking and build coping skills.
For people with traumatic memories, she incorporates EMDR approaches to reduce the intensity of distressing recollections. Her background includes hands-on jobs and work caring for young children, which she says helps her relate to a variety of life circumstances. That experience shapes a down-to-earth approach and practical problem solving in sessions.
Sessions typically focus on current problems like parenting stress, addiction concerns, relationship communication, or life changes. Rachel aims to create a calm, steady space where people can practice new responses and notice progress over time.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches work online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early connections shape current relationships. Online sessions use conversation and exercises to identify attachment patterns and build healthier ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. In virtual appointments this often includes short between-session tasks and step-by-step skill practice. EMDR uses eye movements or other bilateral stimulation alongside memory-focused work to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories; online sessions follow a paced process to address distressing recollections.Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about your history, goals, and what feels doable, then try methods that fit you. You and the therapist check in as work unfolds and adjust the plan based on what helps most.
Online formats offer practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is preferred. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick reflections, ongoing support, or people who prefer writing over speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to continue progress from different locations.
