Online Therapy Grounded in Practical, Compassionate Care

Rachael Figueroa, LCSW, draws from several evidence-informed approaches and adapts them to each client’s needs. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, respectful space where clients can clarify what they are feeling, identify what matters most, and move forward in a way that fits their values.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It can be especially helpful for concerns like stress and anxiety, low mood, and self-esteem challenges by building skills to notice patterns and practice more workable responses. Mindfulness Therapy emphasizes paying attention to the present moment with greater steadiness, which can support coping with strong emotions, grief, and everyday pressure.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Rachael works collaboratively with clients to understand goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped in the past, then adjusts the plan over time based on what feels most useful.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. This range of options can make it easier to fit support into a busy schedule and keep care accessible from wherever is most convenient.
