Rachel Allison

Rachel Allison is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) in Ohio who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and the effects of trauma and abuse. She works with individuals on relationship strain, parenting stress, grief, and problems like sleep disruption and panic attacks. Her approach is compassionate and faith-informed, and she focuses on helping clients find more self-love and stronger connections with others.

Rachel blends practical, evidence-based methods with a respectful, person-centered stance. Sessions tend to focus on clear goals and doable skills people can use between meetings. She listens for each person’s values and faith, and then shapes the work around what matters most to them.

She often uses Trauma-Focused Therapy alongside therapies such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. This mix supports people working through post-traumatic stress, shame, and problems with emotional regulation and avoidance.

Over five years of clinical practice, Rachel has concentrated on women's issues, attachment and abandonment concerns, communication problems, and compassion fatigue. She helps people grieving loss, adjusting to life changes, and coping with ADHD-related challenges.

Clients can expect straightforward conversations, practical tools for day-to-day life, and support in building healthier habits and relationships. Rachel aims to create a respectful space where people can heal, regain balance, and move toward their goals.

How Rachel’s Approaches Translate to Online Therapy

Trauma-Focused Therapy focuses on safely processing painful memories and reducing the hold those memories have on daily life. It often includes pacing, grounding techniques, and practical strategies to notice and change unhelpful patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take actions that match those values, even when difficult feelings are present. Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's experience, with the therapist offering empathy and nonjudgmental listening to help people make sense of their feelings and choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rachel collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She will adjust tools and pacing based on how someone responds, making changes together as progress unfolds.

Because specific session formats are not listed here, confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and let people avoid travel time. For some, not being on camera can reduce stress, while video sessions can help maintain a stronger personal connection. Rachel aims to help people use therapy in ways that suit their daily life and needs.
