Rachel Krier

Rachel Krier is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Minnesota with eight years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, and coping with life changes. Rachel also helps people dealing with caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems, control issues, separation and divorce, and questions about life purpose.

Rachel keeps sessions straightforward and practical. She encourages people to talk through what feels stuck and to identify small steps forward. Conversations cover day-to-day pressures like panic attacks, mood swings, money worries, and isolation. She also addresses specific challenges such as impulses, guilt and shame, and recovery from infidelity.

Her work often centers on building clearer communication and healthier boundaries. Rachel supports people who are overwhelmed by caregiving roles or who face stress from first responder work. She pays attention to how stress shows up in thinking, behavior, and relationships, and helps people notice patterns that get in the way.

Rachel uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. She focuses on practical tools people can use between meetings to manage anxiety and mood. The therapist and client plan next steps together and review progress over time.

Sessions are conducted in English and Rachel does not accept international clients. Costs vary by location and are billed through a cancellable subscription. To begin, choose the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How evidence-based techniques guide online sessions

Rachel uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on present-day thinking and behavior. Cognitive approaches look at how thoughts shape feelings and actions, and teach practical skills to reduce anxiety and manage panic. Behavioral strategies break problems into small, manageable steps and introduce changes that can ease mood and boost functioning.

She also draws on trauma-informed practices that prioritize safety in pacing and in building tolerance for difficult memories and feelings. These methods help people recover from abuse, handle intense reactions, and rebuild trusted ways of relating to others. Selecting the right approach is part of the work; Rachel and the client decide together which techniques fit the person's goals and preferences.

Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking, as the original biography does not specify formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins around work breaks, or avoiding the need to be on camera for every session. Licensed professionals can adapt tools and homework to work in remote sessions so clients can apply skills between meetings.
