About Rachael

Rachael Considine is a New York licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with six years of clinical experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, and ADHD.

Background and approach

She approaches care with an emphasis on each person's strengths and lived experience, believing clients are the experts on their own stories and that therapy is a collaborative journey toward greater well-being.

Her style blends practical skills and reflective work, combining cognitive behavioral techniques with client-centered and mindfulness-based practices to address mood concerns, sleep difficulties, anger, relationship and family issues, and identity-related matters including LGBT concerns and gender dysphoria.

Rachael also brings narrative and motivational interviewing methods to help clients clarify values, reframe unhelpful patterns, and take concrete steps toward meaningful change. Sessions aim to empower clients to build resilience and cope with life transitions, obsessive-compulsive patterns, and seasonal affective challenges.

She offers an affirming, respectful approach that supports people as they explore new perspectives and develop tools for daily life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Access

Rachael commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based practices in online sessions. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying and shifting thought and behavior patterns that contribute to distress, which can help with anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and acceptance skills that can reduce reactivity to stress and support emotion regulation.

She approaches treatment collaboratively, recognizing that finding the most helpful method is part of the work. Together with each client she explores goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, adjusting techniques over time so the approach fits the person's needs and pace.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals without geographic travel, and they allow sessions to be integrated into daily life through a range of communication styles.
