Rainey Boateng, LCSW

Rainey Boateng is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with two decades of professional experience. She uses practical, evidence-informed approaches to help people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, and major life transitions. Her tone is direct and compassionate, focused on helping people make workable changes in day-to-day life.

She draws on several approaches to suit each person’s needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and build new habits. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports people in clarifying values and taking steps that align with those values. Attachment-focused work looks at early relationship patterns and how they show up now.

Rainey has worked in a range of settings across her career, and that variety shapes a flexible, down-to-earth style. She aims to create clear goals and small, doable steps toward them. Sessions tend to center on what’s most pressing and what will make the biggest difference quickly.

She works with concerns including trauma and abuse, addictions, eating issues, bipolar disorder, ADHD, caregiving stress, grief, and relationship and communication problems. She also supports people navigating aging, adoption and foster care issues, cancer-related stress, and the fallout from divorce or separation.

How Rainey’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people name what matters to them and take small actions that match those values. It is useful for stress, life transitions, and patterns that keep someone stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. It often includes practical homework between sessions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current reactions and helps people build different ways of relating and regulating emotions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has worked in the past. From there she tailors methods and pacing so the work feels manageable and relevant to everyday life.
