About Rachel
Dr. Rachel Radin is a California psychologist who focuses on helping adults manage anxiety, mood, and eating concerns. She works with people dealing with stress, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, and parenting challenges.
Rachel uses practical, evidence-informed strategies to help clients make small changes that add up over time. She earned a Master of Science and a PhD in Clinical and Medical Psychology from the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences and completed a pre-doctoral internship in pediatric psychology at Mount Washington Pediatric Hospital.
Background and approach
A postdoctoral fellowship at the University of California, San Francisco added training in mindfulness and motivational interviewing. These experiences shaped her interest in health-related behavior and stress-linked eating patterns. In sessions she draws from approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior methods, client-centered work, and mindfulness practices.
That mix helps people build practical skills, clarify values, and reduce unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Rachel tailors what she uses to each person rather than applying a single method to everyone. She has eight years of clinical experience working with adults facing a range of concerns including trauma, grief, bipolar mood issues, ADHD, and relationship struggles.
Her background includes treating stress-related eating and developing brief interventions to reduce binge and stress-related eating. Rachel conducts therapy in English and practices in California as CA Psychologist 30403. She offers several session formats so people can choose what fits their schedule and communication preferences.

Online approaches and practical therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, meaningful steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and eating concerns. Mindfulness-based techniques train attention and present-moment awareness to reduce stress-related reactivity and help with emotion regulation.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, history, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they pick techniques and adapt them over time so the plan fits daily life and priorities.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be helpful when bandwidth is limited or a person prefers not to use video. Live chat and text-based messaging provide brief check-ins, skill practice, or shorter conversations between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or caregiving schedules while keeping the focus on practical change.
