Rachel Wollmann

Rachel Wollmann is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who helps people tackle stress, anxiety, anger, grief, and relationship strains. She listens without judgment and focuses on strengths to help people feel more confident as they work through hard moments. She speaks English and Korean and brings 15 years of experience to her practice in Hawaii.

Her sessions often center on emotional healing and repairing relationships. She draws on mindfulness, client-centered ideas, motivational interviewing, and existential perspectives to match each person’s needs. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is one approach she may use for trauma-related concerns.

Rachel integrates the Christian faith into counseling when clients want that to be part of their work. That integration is offered alongside practical strategies for daily life, such as skills for sleep, managing compulsions, and addressing hoarding or phobias. She aims to build small, doable steps toward change rather than only focusing on long-term goals.

Her style is conversational and strengths-focused. People can expect straightforward guidance, reflective listening, and collaborative goal setting. Sessions explore what’s working, what’s getting in the way, and practical ways to move forward.

Rachel’s background includes missionary work and many years supporting people with depression, bipolar concerns, addictions, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and intimacy-related issues. She invites prospective clients to describe their situation and consider whether her approach feels like a fit before scheduling.

Therapeutic approaches that translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, acceptance, and following what matters most to the person. It helps people clarify their own goals and feel understood as they work through anger, relationship problems, or low self-esteem.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches gentle attention to thoughts, feelings, and bodily sensations. It can reduce reactivity to stress and improve sleep and attention by practicing awareness and breathing skills between sessions.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, often called EMDR, is a method used for processing traumatic memories and reducing their emotional intensity. When appropriate, it is used to target specific trauma-related distress and related symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use visual or verbal tools during a session in ways that suit their routine, while still keeping the focus on practical steps and skill building.
