Rachel King is a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor located in San Antonio, TX. She has 10 years of experience in the mental health field, with extensive experience helping others with overcoming addiction. Rachel helps those whose substance use interrupts their ability to be successful in the workplace or to engage in healthy relationship dynamics.
Rachel understands how difficult it can be for clients to reach out for help, which is why she creates a non-judgmental atmosphere where clients feel comfortable – and empowered – to talk openly about what’s happening in their lives with her. Clients learn new coping skills that can help them reduce the negative impacts of their mental health, leading to a fulfilling and comfortable life. Rachel practices Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a thoughts-based therapy modality that draws a connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. For example, if someone engages in negative self-talk, they might begin to feel anxious, which can lead to drinking.
Rachel earned a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from the University of Texas at San Antonio. In her practice, she tailors her therapeutic approach to the needs of each individual client to actively collaborate on meeting their goals. She dedicates herself to staying up to date on the latest best practice, drawing upon a holistic approach to health the mind, body, and spirit.
