Evidence-Based Techniques Delivered Online

Rachel Hedlund uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that translate well to remote care. One approach focuses on cognitive and skills-based strategies, helping clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and build practical coping skills to manage stress, anxiety, attention challenges, and mood concerns. Another approach is trauma-informed work, which emphasizes safety, stabilization, and gradual processing of traumatic experiences to reduce the impact of trauma and abuse on daily functioning.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Rachel works with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and then tailors techniques to fit the individual rather than applying a one-size-fits-all method. The aim is to align treatment with what will be most helpful for that client.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for busy schedules and for people in different locations. These options make it possible to engage with a licensed professional from home, while preserving regular access to support and allowing therapy to continue despite life demands.
