About Rachel
Rachel DeVita is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in New Hampshire and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 13 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, trauma and abuse, and the difficulties that come with life changes. She also supports concerns like parenting strain, relationship stress, substance use, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
Her background includes work in community and residential settings. She has supported people who experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse and has worked with those facing workplace pressure, first responder issues, and grief. This practical experience informs how she approaches everyday problems.
Rachel uses straightforward, collaborative conversation in sessions. She draws on Client-Centered methods, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness, and Solution-Focused techniques to help people notice patterns and practice different ways of responding. Sessions usually focus on small, manageable changes rather than big overhauls.
She describes treatment that pays attention to thoughts, reactions, and coping skills. That can mean learning tools to manage anger, practicing grounding and mindfulness, or testing new communication strategies. Rachel integrates discussion of triggers and practical exercises so skills can be tried between sessions.
People can expect a steady, problem-focused approach that aims to reduce distress and expand options for handling conflict, workplace strain, parenting challenges, and symptoms of anxiety or depression. Rachel works in English and her practice is based in New Hampshire.
How Rachel uses evidence-based approaches online
Rachel combines Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in ways that translate well to remote work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on open, respectful conversation and helps people talk through what's hard for them. CBT looks at unhelpful thoughts and teaches practical skills to change reactions and behaviors, which can help with anger and anxiety.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. DBT teaches step-by-step tools such as grounding, breathing, and short behavioral experiments to reduce intense reactions and manage interpersonal conflict.
Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative. The therapist and client decide together which methods to try based on current problems, goals, and personal preferences. That means sessions can shift toward skill practice, problem solving, or deeper reflection depending on what helps most.
Confirm the therapist's current online session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a day by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. Phone sessions may take less bandwidth and video sessions allow for visual cues during role-plays or communication practice. These practical benefits help people try new responses to anger and stressful situations without rearranging their whole schedule.
