About Rachel
Rachel Cohen, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), is licensed in New Jersey and has 10 years of practice experience. She helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping concerns, parenting challenges, trauma and grief, and career or life-change problems. Her stated focus also includes ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, compassion fatigue, and a range of family and attachment-related issues.
Cohen describes a collaborative and interactive style. She works with clients to set mutual goals and focuses on practical, real-time solutions. Sessions emphasize building both internal coping skills and external supports rather than only reviewing past events.
Her background includes work with individuals and families facing medical issues, including childhood cancer. She spent several years working in the eating disorder field and has also practiced in private settings. She names a particular interest in supporting young parents adjusting to parenthood, including postpartum anxiety and depression, fertility concerns, and pregnancy or infant loss.
Cohen uses several therapeutic approaches to guide work in sessions. These include Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Psychodynamic Therapy. She integrates techniques from these approaches to match goals that clients bring to therapy.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the client. It emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and collaborating on goals, which helps with relationship and identity concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and difficulties with sleep and eating because it targets patterns that maintain problems.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and tolerating distress. These skills can be applied when clients struggle with anger, intense mood shifts, or relationship conflicts.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively to pick or combine methods based on the client’s concerns, goals, and preferences. Adjustments are made over time as needs change.
Confirm which session formats are offered before booking. The platform process asks clients to complete a short matching questionnaire to schedule a first appointment. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time, which helps people maintain consistency with sessions.
