About Rachel

Dr. Rachel Radin is a California psychologist who focuses on helping adults manage anxiety, mood, and eating concerns. She holds a PhD in Clinical and Medical Psychology and uses practical, evidence-informed approaches to help people make changes that fit their lives.

She draws from cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and from mindfulness to build awareness of urges and emotions. Motivational interviewing is part of her toolbox for helping people find personal reasons to change habits like stress-related eating. Sessions emphasize clear, manageable steps rather than lengthy theory talks.

Rachel trained at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences and completed a pre-doctoral internship in pediatric psychology. She also finished a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of California, San Francisco where she refined brief interventions for stress-related eating using mindfulness and motivational approaches. That training included work on health-related behavior change, diabetes and obesity management, and developmental concerns.

Her clinical background includes addressing binge eating, weight-related eating issues, and mood disorders. She applies client-centered practices to tailor strategies to each person’s goals and daily routine. Over eight years of practice have focused on translating research-based methods into straightforward plans clients can try between sessions.

People who choose to work with her can expect collaborative goal-setting and stepwise behavior changes. She aims to help people regain balance in eating, mood, sleep, and daily stress so they can move toward the life they want.

This summary is based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and struggles with motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, which is useful for mood issues, anxiety, and eating patterns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and awareness skills to reduce stress-related urges and support behavior change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with you about your goals, daily routines, and what feels doable. Together you will try methods and adjust them based on what helps and what feels realistic for your life.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people practice skills in their usual environments and bring real-life examples into sessions for immediate problem-solving.
