About Rachael Mooney

Welcome!

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Georgia and a Licensed Independent Social Worker – Clinical Practice in South Carolina, with five years of professional experience. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from The University of Georgia and have since dedicated my career to supporting individuals through life’s challenges.

I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and adults facing a range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, abuse, self-esteem issues, and life transitions. I also have a strong interest in supporting caregivers and helping parents strengthen their skills.

My therapeutic style is warm, interactive, and collaborative. I believe in treating every client with respect, empathy, and compassion. Drawing from cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and integrative approaches, I tailor each treatment plan to your unique needs and goals.

I’m passionate about helping clients create more fulfilling and meaningful lives. My hope is that you leave each session feeling heard, supported, and empowered.

I look forward to working with you on your journey toward healing and growth.

“Rachael is the sweetest soul! I have really enjoyed having therapy with her. She is so kind and understanding and patient and asks great questions.”

“Daughter has had great success with Rachael! Very positive experience!”

“I’ve had Rachel as my therapist for a while now and i can confidently say that she is absolutely the best therapist i’ve ever had. Super patient and kind and attentive.”

“Easy to talk to and listens”

“She is amaaazing”

“Rachael is awesome! She makes my teen feel calm, heard, and has great techniques to practice to help my teen with her anxiety. I highly recommend her!”

“Over the last few months, I’ve walked through some really difficult health challenges that deeply affected my mental health as well. Rachael has been such a steady, grounding presence through it all. From our very first session, I felt completely comfortable with her — like I’d known her forever.<br /> <br /> She creates such a safe, judgment-free space where I feel truly heard and understood. She has helped me process fear, anxiety, and uncertainty in a way that feels empowering instead of overwhelming. I genuinely don’t know how I would have navigated this season without her support.<br /> <br /> If you’re looking for a therapist who is compassionate, insightful, and deeply invested in her clients, Rachael is truly amazing.”

“This has been such a beautiful and enlightening experience. I never knew how much I truly needed this until I took the step to start.”

“Great listener with the perfect mode of “interrupting” to Segway or keep me on track without making me feel weird. Very positive and empathetic. I have seen my fair share of therapists and in just a couple of sessions I can tell that she’s really genuine and good at what she does!”

“She has helped me greatly with self confidence and navigating difficult relationships!”

“She’s great! She makes me feel seen and understood and she is willing to challenge me for better growth.”

“Rachel is a wonderful gentle listener. She is the first therapist I have worked with that understands how to meet me where I am when I show up to our sessions. She also does a great job at setting obtainable goals for me that don’t feel overwhelming when looking at my busy week. I have already felt and seen so much progress since working with her for only a month now.”

“Absolute joy of a human being! I look forward to seeing her every week. To have the ability to see, out loud, a person who has felt unseen for so long, is a gift she willingly carries. She is, without a doubt, just awesome!”
