Rachael Considine, LMHC

Rachael Considine is a licensed mental health counselor with six years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, parenting challenges, and anger. She also supports those facing identity questions such as gender dysphoria and LGBT-related concerns, as well as attention struggles like ADHD and patterns linked to obsessions, compulsions, or seasonal mood shifts.

Rachael works from a belief that clients know their own stories and bring strengths to the work. She uses straightforward, collaborative conversations to identify what feels most helpful. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking so daily habits and reactions change over time.

Her approach draws on client-centered methods that prioritize the person in the room and cognitive behavioral techniques that look at thoughts and everyday habits. Mindfulness practices are offered to build moment-to-moment awareness and reduce emotional reactivity. Motivational interviewing and narrative therapy are added when people want to strengthen motivation or reframe difficult experiences.

In sessions Rachael listens, reflects, and helps set small, realistic goals. She encourages skill-building you can use between appointments, such as simple behavioral experiments and thought-recording exercises. The work is paced to match each person’s comfort and readiness.

Rachael is licensed in New York as an LMHC. Conversations are in English and tailored to the concerns brought into the room. If you want to begin, follow the site process to match and schedule a first appointment.

Approaches that guide online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person in front of the therapist. It involves attentive listening, reflection, and helping people identify their own strengths and choices; this can help with low self-esteem, grief, and relationship stress. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and everyday habits and uses practical exercises to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns; it often helps with anxiety, depression, and sleep difficulties. Mindfulness therapy encourages gentle awareness of present-moment experience and offers simple practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotion regulation.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust plans based on what feels useful. That collaborative process helps shape whether more skill-building, reflective narrative work, or motivation-focused conversations are emphasized.
