About Rachel
Rachel DeVita is a licensed mental health counselor in New Hampshire with 13 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and the effects of trauma and abuse. She also supports those facing life changes, compassion fatigue, addictions, grief, parenting strain, self-esteem concerns, and issues related to ADHD and relationships.
Her sessions are warm and supportive. Rachel focuses on listening first and then working with each person to set clear, practical goals.
Background and approach
She encourages self-care and attention to the whole person rather than only symptoms. Conversations are straightforward and aimed at building skills people can use between sessions. Rachel blends several approaches to fit each person’s needs.
She draws on client-centered methods to keep the conversation grounded in the client's experience. Cognitive behavioral tools help identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behavior patterns. Mindfulness and solution-focused techniques offer short-term strategies for managing strong emotions like anger.
She has worked in community and residential settings and has experience supporting people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. Rachel is familiar with first responder concerns and workplace stress. Her background includes helping people navigate pregnancy and childbirth related stress and midlife shifts.
Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Rachel tailors plans to each person and adjusts approaches as progress is made. If someone prefers clear steps and practical practice, she can set a plan that focuses on skills and small, measurable changes.

Online approaches for skill building and emotion regulation
Rachel uses client-centered work to keep sessions focused on each person's priorities and lived experience. This approach means conversations start with the client's needs and build goals from there, which can help when anger or stress feels overwhelming.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people notice thoughts that fuel strong emotions and to test new responses. CBT is practical and often involves small experiments to change behavior and ease symptoms of anxiety or anger.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills and mindfulness practices are used when emotions feel intense. These tools teach distress-tolerance, emotion regulation, and present-moment awareness so people can respond differently in heated moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and lifestyle and adjusts the plan as progress occurs.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video lets people use visual cues and a longer session format. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a quieter option is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins and ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or shift schedules.
