About Rachel
Rachel Jones is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Missouri. She has a master’s degree in Educational, School and Counseling Psychology from the University of Missouri-Columbia and 13 years providing direct therapy services. Rachel brings a practical, straightforward style to sessions and keeps evening hours to accommodate busy schedules.
Before focusing on therapy, Rachel worked in several leadership roles in mental health. Her background includes community mental health, career counseling, substance use treatment, and work related to domestic and family violence. That variety informs how she approaches problems in the room.
Rachel uses client-centered methods that pay attention to each person’s culture and life story. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and mindfulness practices to help people manage strong emotions. In sessions she aims to be direct, supportive, and practical.
People come to her for a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, compassion fatigue, addictions, ADHD, and relationship or family issues. She also lists adoption and foster care among her additional focus areas and can help people facing caregiver stress or blended family challenges.
Rachel offers evening appointment times in Central Standard Time. Her approach emphasizes collaboration - she works with people to set goals and build steps that fit their life. If evening slots are important, she schedules sessions on Mondays and Wednesdays from 5 to 10 pm CST.
How her approaches shape online sessions
Rachel uses client-centered therapy to guide conversations by following the person’s lead, reflecting their concerns, and focusing on what matters most to them. This approach helps when people need a listening space that is respectful of their background and goals.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT is useful for managing anxiety, depression, and patterns that get in the way of daily functioning by practicing new ways of thinking and behaving.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rachel collaborates with each person to decide which methods suit their needs and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made. That means trying tools, checking what helps, and changing direction when needed.
Because formats are not specified in the biography, confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow evening scheduling, and reduce travel time. It can also support shorter check-ins or focused skill practice when those fit a person’s goals.
