About Rachel
Rachel Jones is an AHPRA-registered psychologist with 16 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and compassion fatigue. Rachel aims to help people feel more confident and capable in day-to-day life.
Her approach is practical and collaborative. She listens to what matters most, then works with each person to set small, achievable goals. Sessions often include skills practice, gentle reflection and steps to reduce overwhelm.
How Rachel works
Rachel draws on evidence-based techniques to guide her work. She uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside mindfulness, narrative and solution-focused ideas. These methods are adapted to suit each person’s situation rather than applied as a one-size-fits-all plan.
She also brings experience supporting people after traumatic events and those coping with workplace stress or identity shifts. The emphasis is on building resilience and useful tools for everyday challenges rather than quick fixes. In sessions Rachel aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can be heard and try out new ways of managing difficult feelings.
Her style is steady and down-to-earth, with a focus on practical steps that help people feel more in control. If someone wants a measured, collaborative approach, Rachel offers structured support and gentle encouragement.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches for online support
Rachel uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns; this approach often includes practical exercises to reduce anxiety and lift mood. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify their values and take meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or emotions are present.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rachel discusses different options with each person and tailors methods to their needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where techniques are tested and adjusted over time to find what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how people connect. Video calls allow a conversational experience similar to face-to-face sessions, phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera, and live chat or text messaging suit short check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
