About me

Do you ever find yourself feeling overwhelmed or boggled down with everyday stressors and struggles? We have all been there before. I believe that everyone needs a supportive, objective person to talk to when they are struggling and deciding which move to make next. I can be that supportive person for you. I have experience in substance abuse, child/adolescent counseling, anxiety/depression, coping skills, etc... My main goal as a counselor is to make a difference in the lives of others, and hopefully provide you with helpful tools for whatever journey you may be on in your life.
I have been in the counseling field since 2005. My roles in life are probably not much different from your own; I am a wife, mother, daughter, sister, teacher, coach, and friend. Please allow me to utilize my professional and personal experience to help you with your current struggles.

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Rachel James. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

Rachel is very thorough and to the point in discussions. She's very patient, insightful and has a lot of wisdom about how to tackle issues from my perspective and skill set. She gives me new ways to approach problems that are very realistic and possible. Even though I haven't been a patient of hers for long, I can already see a noticeable change in my mental health, my behavior, and in my life as a result. Thank you Rachel, you're the best!
