Rachael Majeres , LPC

Rachael Majeres is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in South Dakota with six years of professional experience. She has worked with people managing stress and anxiety, addressing addictions and motivation, and building self-esteem and confidence. Her work also includes supporting those experiencing depression.

Rachael aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be shared freely.

She recognizes that beginning therapy often takes courage and acknowledges the effort involved in taking that first step, offering encouragement to those who decide to start.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Care

Rachael uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and personal insight. One approach emphasizes identifying and adjusting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning - this helps people manage anxiety, low mood, and stress by teaching concrete strategies to respond differently to difficult thoughts and situations.

Another area of focus is trauma-informed support, which centers on safely processing past difficult experiences and building coping resources to reduce their ongoing impact. For people working through grief, trauma, or relationship stress, these methods aim to restore a sense of stability and gradual recovery. Rachael also incorporates motivational techniques to support change for clients facing addictions or struggling with motivation and goal-setting.

Finding the right mix of techniques is collaborative - the therapist will work with each person to determine which approaches best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit regular sessions into a busy life and to continue care from different locations. Licensed professionals can adapt these methods effectively across remote formats to support progress and resilience.
