Rachel Williams, LCSW

Rachel Williams is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Utah with three years of hands-on experience supporting adults through a range of emotional and relational challenges. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, grief, trauma and abuse, and addictions, and she offers targeted support for parenting concerns, intimacy-related issues, self-esteem struggles, and identity matters within the LGBT community.

Rachel approaches care with a whole-person perspective, believing that life events, relationships, and environment all shape mental health. She blends evidence-informed methods such as Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, and Mindfulness Therapy to create individualized treatment plans. Rachel collaborates with each person to determine which techniques best fit their needs and goals, adjusting plans as progress unfolds.

Her work emphasizes building stronger connections, improving communication, and developing practical coping skills for life transitions and relapse prevention. Rachel aims to make therapy accessible and practical, guiding clients through change with empathy and clear strategies to help them move toward greater resilience and self-understanding.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Rachel integrates Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into her online practice to address emotional and relational concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns of connection formed in relationships and helps people heal attachment wounds so they can form more secure and satisfying bonds. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an accepting, nonjudgmental space where the client leads the conversation and the therapist helps facilitate personal growth and self-understanding. CBT offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, supporting improvement in anxiety, mood, and daily functioning.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Rachel works collaboratively with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, adapting techniques over time so the care aligns with what is most helpful for the individual.

Online therapy with Rachel is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which makes scheduling more flexible and allows therapy to fit into busy lives. These options expand access for people balancing work, family, or geographic barriers while preserving the core therapeutic work of connection, skill-building, and emotional support.
