About Rachael

Rachael Fowler is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in South Carolina who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and many related concerns.

Background and approach

She draws on seven years of clinical experience to support clients working through grief, self-esteem challenges, ADHD, addictions, relationship and family difficulties, parenting strains, bipolar mood concerns, and compassion fatigue. Additional areas she addresses include attachment and abandonment issues, adoption and foster care matters, body image, caregiver stress, dissociation, domestic violence, and other complex presentations.

Her style blends compassionate, client-centered care with evidence-informed methods to promote practical change and deeper self-understanding. Rachael uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), existential perspectives, motivational interviewing, and narrative techniques to help clients clarify values, build coping skills, and shift unhelpful patterns.

She emphasizes collaboration, resilience-building, and improved communication as clients work toward goals such as reducing symptoms, repairing relationships, or navigating major life transitions. Rachael offers therapy in English and practices from South Carolina as an LPC (SC LPC 9285, GA LPC LPC011709).

She aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental environment where people can explore their experiences and develop tools for meaningful change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Access

Rachael commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy into her online practice. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression and to build practical coping skills. ACT emphasizes values clarification, present-moment awareness, and committed action to help people live in ways that align with what matters to them while accepting difficult internal experiences.

She approaches the selection of methods collaboratively, working with each person to determine which approaches fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process includes discussing what feels most useful in early sessions and adjusting methods over time so therapy remains relevant and client-centered.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions, balance therapy with work or caregiving responsibilities, and access support from home or other convenient locations. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and tools used in CBT and ACT to each online format so that therapeutic work continues to focus on meaningful change and real-world progress.
