I've only spoken with Rachelle twice, but both times, I have walked away with a feeling of self-discovery. She's really great to talk to.

- LCMHC
As a licensed therapist in North Carolina, I specialize in supporting young adults navigating complex life transitions and multicultural experiences. My practice centers on helping individuals explore identity, overcome challenges related to self-esteem, and develop healthy coping strategies for family dynamics and personal growth.
I bring a compassionate approach to addressing issues like anger management, ADHD, and the unique experiences of individuals from diverse backgrounds. My work is deeply informed by understanding the impacts of prejudice, discrimination, and complex family systems, with a particular focus on supporting those in adoption and foster care contexts.
My therapeutic style emphasizes empowerment, cultural sensitivity, and collaborative healing. I'm committed to creating a supportive space where clients can explore their strengths, work through challenges, and develop meaningful strategies for personal transformation.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
