About Rachel

Rachel Roger is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with six years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, eating concerns, depression, and many related issues including codependency. She offers straightforward support for people who are ready to change patterns that cause them ongoing distress.

Rachel centers sessions on the client's perspective and strengths. She helps people name what isn’t working and practice different ways of responding. Conversations focus on practical skills and everyday choices rather than labels or judgment.

Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy methods. That means she and the client look at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and try new behavioral strategies. Sessions often include skill practice for emotion regulation, coping with anxiety, and improving communication.

Rachel has worked with issues such as abandonment and attachment concerns, body image and eating-related problems, caregiver stress, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, and difficulty with intimacy. She also supports people coping with career stress, sleep disruptions, ADHD, and complex emotional responses.

Clients can expect a direct, practical way of working. Rachel asks questions, suggests small experiments to try between sessions, and checks in on what helps. People who want concrete tools to manage emotions and set clearer boundaries often find this approach useful.

How sessions work

How Rachel Uses CBT and DBT Online

Rachel uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thought patterns that feed anxiety, low mood, or unhelpful behaviors. CBT sessions often include short exercises, thought records, and experiments to try between meetings to test what changes behavior and mood.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. DBT-informed practice focuses on concrete tools you can use in stressful moments and when relationships feel overwhelming.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Rachel will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and daily life. She reviews what works, adjusts techniques, and helps prioritize the most useful skills.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as session formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. These practical benefits help people keep therapy consistent while trying new coping strategies.
