About Raquel
Raquel Perez is a licensed clinical social worker in Wisconsin with six years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood, or changes in life. Raquel aims to make conversations feel straightforward and honest so clients can speak freely about what matters to them.
She builds a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can name difficult feelings and try small changes that add up. Sessions emphasize practical steps and clear goals, not jargon or long lectures. Raquel supports people working through trauma and abuse, as well as those managing issues like self-harm, postpartum depression, and mood disorders.
Raquel also pays attention to adoption and foster care concerns and how those experiences can shape identity, attachment, and stress. She helps with relationship patterns that come from early experiences and with challenges such as isolation, blended family tensions, or caregiving strain.
Her work is collaborative: she listens, reflects what she hears, and helps clients pick tools that fit their daily life. Expect straightforward talk, wake-up actions to try between sessions, and regular check-ins on what’s working.
Raquel practices in Wisconsin and conducts sessions in English. The pathway to begin is simple: use the platform’s Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule based on the therapist’s availability.
How evidence-based approaches guide online care
Raquel uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional processing. One approach emphasizes processing distressing experiences and reducing the hold of past trauma by carefully naming memories and responses; this helps with post-traumatic stress, dissociation, and overwhelming anxiety. Another common strand focuses on mood and behavior regulation through small, repeatable actions to lift motivation and reduce low mood; this style suits depression, low energy, and days when tasks feel heavy.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist listens to your goals and how day-to-day life is affected, and then suggests techniques to try. Together you track what helps and adjust the plan so it fits your needs and preferences.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Because session formats are not listed in the biography, confirm the current options before booking so you know what will work best. Online work can make it easier to check in during a break from work, use shorter sessions when energy is low, or keep regular contact while managing caregiving or other responsibilities.
