Rachel Roger

Rachel Roger is a New York licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with six years of experience. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, eating and food-related issues, and depression. Rachel starts by listening and helping clients name what matters most to them.

She believes clients know their own stories and already have strengths to build on. In sessions she offers practical steps and clear tools to help manage painful thoughts and difficult moods. Rachel focuses on small changes that make daily life feel more manageable.

Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy approaches to teach skills for emotion regulation, coping, and clearer communication. She uses straightforward exercises and skill practice rather than long lectures. The goal is to help people notice patterns and try new ways of handling stress and relationships.

Rachel also pays attention to challenges tied to body image, attachment, grief, caregiver stress, and trauma. She helps people sort through guilt, shame, breakup and separation issues, and the strain that comes from major life changes. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

People who want a practical, skills-based approach that still values their personal story may find her style helpful. She invites curious, motivated clients to start by describing one immediate problem to work on together.

How her approaches guide online therapy

Rachel uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; CBT often involves breaking problems into small steps and practicing new ways of thinking to reduce worry and improve mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) focuses on building skills for managing strong emotions, handling interpersonal conflicts, and reducing impulsive reactions through practical tools and skills practice.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most useful based on their goals, current struggles, and daily life. Clients and therapist check in on what helps and adjust the plan over time.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for brief check-ins when life is hectic. It can also let a person try skill practice in between commitments and bring real-life examples directly into sessions, which helps turn learning into change.
