About Rachel
Rachel Mariotti is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York with five years of professional experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem, career questions, and life changes. Rachel also addresses intimacy-related issues, sleep and eating concerns, depression, ADHD, and codependency.
Rachel began her clinical work in a psychoanalytic setting and later opened a private practice called Mental Hygiene. Her current approach leans toward present-moment thinking and the automatic thoughts that trigger upsetting reactions. This approach resembles Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and focuses on noticing patterns in thought and behavior.
Her style is casual and direct, with occasional humor. She gives practical suggestions and assigns short activities between sessions, often writing exercises or mindfulness practices. Rachel also makes space to point out positive moments and encourages people to practice communicating them.
In sessions she helps people recognize black-or-white thinking and look for more balanced perspectives. She works on concrete skills such as shifting automatic thoughts, setting small goals, and improving everyday routines that affect mood and sleep.
Clients can expect straightforward feedback and short homework between meetings. Rachel frames change as a step-by-step process, focusing on small shifts that add up over time.
How sessions work
How Rachel’s therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Rachel uses evidence-based techniques that focus on present-moment thoughts and the automatic beliefs that drive reactions. One clear approach she uses is Cognitive Behavioral style work, which helps people identify and test unhelpful thoughts and replace them with more balanced options. This approach is useful for anxiety, low mood, and getting unstuck from black-or-white thinking.She also incorporates mindfulness practices in brief exercises between sessions. These practices aim to increase awareness of habitual reactions and to build simple routines that improve sleep, eating patterns, and emotional regulation.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss what feels useful and adjust methods based on the client’s goals, preferences, and daily life. Clients and the therapist decide together which techniques to try and which to drop.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people use audio-only or lower-bandwidth options if that suits them better. These practical benefits can help therapy fit into everyday life without requiring major schedule changes.
