Rachel Washington-Childers, LPC

Rachel Washington-Childers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas and a graduate of Lamar University, bringing three years of professional experience to her practice. She approaches counseling as a collaborative opportunity for personal growth, offering a warm and respectful space where clients can feel heard and supported as they work through life transitions and emotional challenges.

Rachel works with adults, young adults, adolescents, parents, women including those in the perinatal stage, and new parents navigating changing family dynamics. She assists people facing depression, anxiety, grief and loss, stress, family conflict, relationship strain, trauma, and the everyday challenges that come with life changes. Therapy is tailored to each individual rather than following a one-size-fits-all model, and Rachel emphasizes sensitivity, respect, and compassion throughout the therapeutic process.

Her clinical approach draws on evidence-based methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients build coping skills, improve communication, and pursue meaningful goals. Additional areas of focus include body image, commitment and control issues, feelings of emptiness or isolation, forgiveness, impulsivity, life purpose, financial concerns, mood disorders, postpartum depression, post-traumatic stress, pregnancy and childbirth, and the development of self-love and self-esteem. Rachel aims to support and empower clients as they take courageous steps toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.
