Rachel LaDuke , LPC

Rachel LaDuke is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado with ten years of professional experience. She has supported adults and teens through stress and anxiety, relationship and parenting challenges, and the work of building motivation, self-esteem, and confidence.

LaDuke centers her practice on the belief that each person is the expert of their own story and that existing strengths are essential resources for navigating difficult moments. She recognizes that taking the first steps toward change requires courage, and she aims to provide supportive, empowering guidance as clients pursue a more fulfilling and happier life.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Support

Rachel LaDuke uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and real-life change. One approach emphasizes skills-based coping and anxiety management, teaching concrete strategies to reduce stress reactions, manage intense emotions, and improve daily functioning for clients facing anxiety, depression, or anger. Another area of work concentrates on relationship and parenting strategies, helping clients strengthen communication, set boundaries, and navigate family or partnership challenges in ways that support healthier interactions. A third focus is on building motivation and self-esteem through guided exercises and reflective work that support confidence, self-love, and forward movement after life changes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and LaDuke collaborates with each client to identify methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they experiment with techniques, evaluate what helps, and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible options that align with this collaborative model. Licensed professionals can meet with clients by video calls or phone sessions, or provide shorter, real-time contact through live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier for clients to access consistent care, maintain momentum between sessions, and fit therapy into busy lives.
