About Rachel
Rachel DeVita is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, parenting struggles, and grief. She works with adults facing trauma, substance use concerns, anger, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Rachel brings 13 years of clinical experience in New Hampshire to her sessions.
Her style is warm and supportive. She listens closely and uses empathy to help people find practical next steps. Sessions focus on real-life skills clients can try between meetings to reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning.
Background and approach
Rachel blends client-centered and solution-focused methods with cognitive-behavioral and dialectical strategies. She uses mindfulness practices and structured skill-building to address symptoms and habits. The goal is to tailor sessions to each person’s needs and goals rather than following a fixed script.
In practice she helps clients break problems into manageable parts, try different coping techniques, and track what works. She often focuses on communication, family of origin patterns, workplace stress, and relationship concerns as part of broader life changes. Rachel also addresses issues common to women and young adults.
People meet with her by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Sessions operate on a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are scheduled based on therapist availability.

Approaches that shape online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on building a trusting connection and following the client’s priorities so conversations feel relevant and respectful. It helps when someone needs space to be heard and to set their own goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and many everyday struggles.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, emphasizes skills for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and building distress tolerance. It can help when emotions feel overwhelming or when communication repeatedly breaks down.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, past experiences, and preferences and then try methods that fit best. That process is collaborative and adjusts as progress is seen.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or messaging works for quick check-ins or when people prefer written reflection. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to continue work between meetings.
