Rachel Jones is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with two decades of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, self esteem, career shifts, relationship concerns, sleep problems, and coaching. Rachel works with people who want practical tools and steady support as they navigate life changes.
Her style is straightforward and warm. Sessions often center on skills people can use between visits. Rachel blends Client-Centered conversations with Cognitive Behavioral techniques and solution-focused strategies. Mindfulness practices are also used to ease anxiety and improve sleep.
Rachel trained in psychology at Missouri Western State University and completed a Master of Science in Psychology at the University of Central Missouri. Early roles included counseling urban youth around substance use and work with behavior modification in Hawaii. She later supported displaced workers returning to the workforce and spent many years helping adults with addiction issues.
For the past several years she has maintained a independent practice in Missouri focused on grief, anxiety, and life transitions. She invites people to take manageable steps, build coping skills, and set achievable goals. Rachel also notes that she is not trained to treat trauma, and her licenses prevent working with anyone who has experienced a traumatic event.
Outside of therapy she enjoys hiking, snorkeling, music, and time with family and her two cats. Her approach aims to be collaborative and practical so people can bring change into daily life.
How her approaches guide online work
Client-Centered Therapy puts the person's goals and perspective first, focusing on listening and building a trusting working relationship. This approach helps when someone needs a supportive listener and wants to clarify values and priorities.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical behavior changes. CBT is often useful for anxiety, panic, and improving sleep by teaching concrete strategies to shift thinking and routine.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce rumination and ease stress responses. These practices can be used between sessions to manage day-to-day anxiety and promote better rest.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and then shape sessions accordingly in a collaborative way.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Talk with the therapist about what would fit your routine and needs so sessions can work for everyday life.
