About Rachel
Rachel Jones is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Missouri. She draws on two decades of experience to help people who are feeling stuck by stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, career uncertainty, and major life changes. Her style is direct and compassionate and she aims to help clients find practical steps forward.
Rachel uses a blend of methods including mindfulness practices, client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and solution-focused strategies. In sessions she helps people notice unhelpful thinking, try new coping skills, and build clearer plans for daily life. She often pairs skill practice with short reflections so people can make small changes that add up.
Her background includes a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Missouri Western State University and a Master of Science in Psychology from the University of Central Missouri. Early in her career she worked with urban youth on substance abuse and later gained experience with behavior-focused approaches while living in Hawaii. She also supported displaced workers with career reentry skills at a community college.
Rachel has maintained a private practice for several years offering one-on-one counseling focused on grief, anxiety, and life transitions. She notes that she is not trained to work with trauma, and her licenses prevent her from taking clients whose histories include traumatic events. She encourages prospective clients to review this before booking.
Outside of clinical work, she enjoys hiking, snorkeling, exploring cultures through music, playing piano and flute, singing, dancing, and spending time with family and her cats.
