About Rachel
Rachel Palmore is an Alabama Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 20 years of clinical experience. She sees people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, self-esteem, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, parenting strain, anger, career questions, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and coping with life changes.
Rachel uses practical talking and listening to help people name difficult emotions and notice patterns that get in the way. She draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at feelings and relationship patterns, along with Client-Centered and Cognitive Behavioral approaches to address thoughts and behavior. Mindfulness and Motivational Interviewing also inform her work when clients want tools for focus and motivation.
Her style balances direct feedback with a focus on clients' experiences in the moment. Sessions include reflecting feelings, identifying unhelpful patterns, and trying small changes between meetings. Rachel encourages realistic steps clients can try to change how they respond to stress or conflict.
She has worked across a range of settings over two decades, including community and correctional environments and with people from diverse backgrounds. That experience shapes her attention to multicultural concerns, adoption and foster care issues, and prejudice and discrimination.
Practical matters are part of the work. Rachel helps people think through day-to-day changes, seasonal mood differences such as SAD, compassion fatigue, and parenting pressures. She also offers coaching-style support for career decisions and life transitions.
Sessions are conducted in English. Prospective clients should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.
How Rachel integrates EFT and practical approaches online
Rachel uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people name and work through strong emotions and attachment patterns in relationships. EFT focuses on what people feel in the moment and how those feelings shape interactions.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to emphasize listening and the client's perspective, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thought patterns that influence mood and behavior. These approaches provide both emotional understanding and practical steps for change.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Rachel will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and adjust methods as the work proceeds. Together they decide whether to focus more on feelings, on changing thoughts, or on small behavioral experiments.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as current options are listed during the matching process. Online therapy can make scheduling easier, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people work on emotional and behavioral patterns from within their everyday routines while balancing other commitments.
