About Rachel

Rachel Lackovic is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Pennsylvania with 16 years of experience in social work and clinical settings.

Background and approach

She draws on a strong background providing individual, family, couples, and group therapy to support people facing depression, anxiety, grief and loss, hoarding behaviors, and difficulty meeting personal goals. Her work includes attention to a wide range of concerns such as stress, parenting challenges, relationship and family issues, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and compassion fatigue.

Rachel favors a person-centered stance that respects each client as the authority on their own life while offering practical therapeutic tools. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is central to her method, and she combines it with mindfulness-informed strategies and solution-focused techniques to help clients identify patterns, set achievable goals, and build skills for coping with life changes.

Motivational Interviewing also features in her practice to support readiness for change. Clients can expect collaborative goal-setting and a supportive yet directive presence that guides progress without taking control.

Rachel values helping people move from difficulty toward greater functioning and satisfaction by encouraging healthy choices, personal responsibility, and steady skill development.

Practical approaches for remote care and skill building

Rachel integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy into remote sessions, using CBT to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop concrete behavior changes, and mindfulness practices to increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity. These approaches are well suited to addressing anxiety, depression, stress, and many life transitions by offering skills that can be practiced between sessions.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a collaborative environment where clients' priorities guide the work. Finding the right approach is part of the process, and she will partner with each person to tailor methods to their needs, goals, and preferences rather than imposing a single technique. This collaborative decision making helps determine whether CBT, mindfulness exercises, motivational interviewing, or solution-focused interventions are emphasized.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it easier to fit care into a busy life and supports continuity when in-person visits are difficult. These formats provide flexibility in how and when skill-building and problem solving happen, allowing clients to access a licensed professional from their own setting while working on practical strategies and incremental change.
