About Rachel
Rachel Wollmann is an LMHC - Licensed Mental Health Counselor practicing in Hawaii with 15 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, grief, anger, sleep problems, parenting pressure, bipolar symptoms, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and related concerns.
She draws on what has worked for each person. Sessions start by looking for strengths and past successes to build confidence. Rachel integrates faith when a client wants that, reflecting her background as a Christian missionary. She speaks English and Korean.
Her approach blends client-centered listening with practical tools. She may use mindfulness exercises to calm racing thoughts and motivational interviewing to clarify goals. When trauma is a focus, she can include EMDR techniques as part of the work.
Rachel aims to help people make changes that feel doable. Conversations are straightforward and goal oriented. She often pairs short skills practice with open discussion about patterns and relationships.
People who reach out usually want clearer strategies for handling anger, stronger relationships, or relief from anxiety and stress. Sessions look at what gets in the way, then try small, manageable steps to change how things feel and behave.
How her approaches translate to online work
Rachel uses client-centered therapy, which centers on listening carefully and following the client’s priorities. Online sessions still focus on understanding what matters to the client and building on strengths to make change. Existential therapy is about examining values and meaning when life feels confusing or stuck; in remote sessions this can help people make clearer decisions about relationships and work. EMDR is a trauma-focused method that involves guided attention and memory processing; some elements can be adapted to remote sessions when both therapist and client agree it fits their needs.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Rachel will discuss different methods and collaborate on which to try based on the client’s goals, comfort, and preferences. This is a step-by-step process rather than a one-time decision, and adjustments happen as the work progresses.
Confirm the current session formats before booking, as specific online options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people practice skills in their own everyday settings and bring real-life situations into the conversation without promising any particular format.
