Rachel Sirek , LPC

Rachel Sirek is a licensed therapist in Colorado who supports adults seeking clearer understanding of their emotions, relationships, and recurring patterns, with particular attention to neurodivergent perspectives. She holds an LPC, which stands for Licensed Professional Counselor, a credential that indicates professional training and state licensure.

Rachel frames neurodivergence as a natural variation in how brains operate, including examples such as ADHD, autism, dyslexia, sensory processing differences, and learning disabilities. She does not view neurodivergence as something to be fixed but as part of human diversity, and she helps people learn how their brains work, reduce self-criticism, and identify strategies that better match their ways of thinking and experiencing the world.

Her practice often centers on concerns like anxiety, difficulties with emotional regulation, low self-esteem, and feeling stuck in familiar patterns. She has a particular interest in working with people with ADHD who want to explore executive functioning, emotional responses, and identity. Rachel’s clinical background includes both outpatient and crisis work, experiences that shaped her emphasis on compassion, curiosity, and meeting people where they are.

Rachel uses a collaborative and flexible approach that draws from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and systems theory, adapting interventions to honor neurodiverse experiences. She values getting to know each person’s unique story and aims to offer a space that is affirming, respectful, and genuinely human.

Could Remote Therapy Be a Good Fit?

Many people wonder whether meeting with a therapist online can make a meaningful difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life transitions, research and clinical experience indicate that online therapy can be as effective as traditional in-person sessions for most people.

One major advantage of remote services is flexibility - individuals can connect with therapists in ways that fit their routines and comfort: by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility can make it easier to maintain regular care while balancing work, family, and other commitments.

Therapists offering online services are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change providers if they feel a different fit would be better. For many people, remote therapy provides an accessible, practical path to consistent therapeutic work.
