Dr. Rachel Radin

Dr. Rachel Radin is a California clinical health psychologist who focuses on anxiety, mood, and eating concerns. She uses straightforward, practical strategies to help adults who are struggling with stress-related eating, binge eating, and other weight-related eating problems.

She earned a Master’s degree and a PhD in Clinical and Medical Psychology from the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences. Her pre-doctoral internship was in pediatric psychology at Mount Washington Pediatric Hospital, and she completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of California, San Francisco. These experiences shaped her work with health-related behavior and chronic conditions.

Her approach draws on cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness. She also uses motivational interviewing to help people change habits that are tied to stress and emotion. Sessions focus on practical skills, understanding patterns, and making steps that fit daily life.

Dr. Radin has developed brief interventions aimed at reducing stress-related eating. She has experience addressing diabetes management, obesity management, and related health behavior concerns gathered during clinical training and fellowship. Her work often combines behavior change tools with attention to thoughts and emotions.

People who choose her practice can expect a collaborative tone and clear goals. She helps clients set achievable steps and build skills for long-term change. Dr. Radin brings eight years of clinical experience to her work in California.

How her approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small actions toward those values. It often focuses on accepting difficult thoughts while moving toward meaningful goals, which can help with anxiety and eating patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns; it is commonly used for mood, anxiety, and eating concerns. Mindfulness Therapy trains attention to present-moment experience and can reduce stress-driven habits and emotional reactivity.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist works collaboratively to match methods to a person's goals, preferences, and daily routines. Over a few sessions she will check what helps and adjust the plan to fit real-life needs.

Confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins on hectic days, and reduce travel time. It can also let people practice skills in the settings where habits happen. Ask about the available session formats when you schedule so you can pick what fits best.
