About Rachael

Rachael Morgan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 22 years of experience helping adults manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and anger. She works with people facing relationship strain, addiction, grief, parenting stresses, and identity concerns, including LGBT issues. Sessions focus on clear, practical skills rather than labels.

Rachael draws on client-centered methods to keep sessions grounded in what matters to the person. She mixes cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques with dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills and mindfulness practices to address patterns of thinking, emotion regulation, and impulse control. This often looks like skill rehearsal, problem solving, and short behavioral experiments.

Her background includes work with people who have co-occurring issues such as substance use and mood disorders, and with those coping with major life changes. She has experience offering individual, couples, group, and skills training settings, and has supported people with trauma and attachment concerns.

In session she uses a conversational, straightforward style. She helps people notice unhelpful thinking, practice new coping responses, and build small habits that reduce reactivity. The focus is practical: what to do differently when anger or anxiety starts to rise.

People who prefer a skill-based approach and clear steps often find this useful. Rachael encourages gradual change, short experiments, and building confidence through practice. To begin, readers are asked to use the listed online therapy options and complete the short matching questionnaire before scheduling the first session.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Rachael uses client-centered work alongside cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills in her practice. Client-centered work means the therapist follows the person's concerns and priorities and helps shape the focus of sessions. CBT focuses on recognizing and changing unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors. DBT provides concrete strategies for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. She will discuss goals and preferences and recommend which methods to start with. Over time the plan can change based on what helps most, combining skill practice, mindfulness exercises, and short behavioral experiments.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They can also support practicing skills between meetings and carrying homework into daily routines. Licensed professionals adapt pacing and tools so work feels practical and relevant to everyday life.
