Rainey Boateng , LCSW

Rainey Boateng is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Utah with 20 years of professional experience. She has provided care across a variety of settings and has worked with children, adolescents, adults, and geriatric clients, adapting her methods to meet needs at every life stage.

Her practice blends several therapeutic frameworks to address issues such as trauma, addiction, relationship struggles, anxiety, and depression. She draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address unhelpful thought patterns, trauma-focused and sexual abuse therapies to support recovery from past harm, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy to identify practical steps toward clients' goals. She also integrates couples and addiction counseling interventions when relationships or substance use are central concerns.

Rainey complements these modalities with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based approaches, Client-Centered methods, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to tailor care to each person's circumstances. As an LCSW, she combines clinical training with a focus on practical, strengths-based strategies to help people build coping skills, restore relationships, and navigate life transitions.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Rainey Boateng

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and teaches skills to act in ways that align with those values while managing difficult thoughts and emotions. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and navigating life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. It is practical and goal-oriented, often used for depression, anxiety, and coping with everyday challenges.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores early relationship patterns and how they affect current connections, communication, and trust. It can support healing from relational wounds and improve family or couple dynamics.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Rainey works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Licensed professionals and therapists may combine techniques to tailor care and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible access to care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and connect with a therapist from different locations, while still engaging in evidence-based therapeutic work with licensed professionals.
