I am a therapist licensed in Illinois with 10 years of experience. I view this work as helping people heal from hurts and move towards healthier choices and relationships to satisfy legitimate needs. I have worked with clients on issues including anxiety, transition and phase of life concerns, relationships, parenting and trauma.
I try to come from a perspective that views you as the expert on your life and I am here to help you learn, heal and change. I use a humanistic approach along with Trauma Informed and Cognitive Behavioral strategies to work towards those goals.
I hope that your choice is an easy one and I wish you well.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

She is great. She does a great job at leading you to your own self discovery
Raelene is so genuine, strong, kind, compassionate, committed and a life saver.
Raelen provides excellent feedback to my problems with actionable steps I can take to address them.
The journey back to yourself is confusing, hard, and ultimately life-changing. As a medical provider, myself, I wish more people would navigate counseling before crisis. I will be forever thankful for this program.
Raelene is calm and understanding when we try to put something out there. She helps to figure out what your mind sometimes does not understand. Happy with the overall help.

Raelene has been working with me for a few years now, and she has helped me greatly in managing my anxiety and working through my thoughts when they become overwhelming
She helps me validate my feelings and is not afraid to help me sit in my uncomfortable. Always makes sure I am in a better place before the end of our session. Love her!
She is very helpful and frequently makes me rethink negative thoughts in a different way. This helps me break the mental chain I unknowingly created for myself years ago.
Rae is a great communicator, who is able to offer me the support and validation that I need while I untangle my thoughts, feelings, and life.

I only worked with Raelene for a short amount of time but she was terrific. Providing focused guidance on areas I could improve and think differently about life / work / etc I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking to begin therapy or find a new therapist!
From day one she jumped right into my story with me, with very clear thoughts and questions.
An amazing therapist! I love her and appreciate everything she does to help me feel better
I enjoy therapy with Raelene very much.
Raelene literally has helped me so much already and we’ve only had a few sessions. She is kind, open, honest, direct, and has the know-how and abilities to help anyone who is struggling with their self-image, confidence, or who is working through healing traumas. I am so thankful for her help, she really is a Godsend.
Raelene is like that friend you’ve always wanted to validate your feelings but at the same time challenge your thinking to create healthier habits.
Fantastic therapists, great listener, great input

I trust Raelene completely and can recommend her to everyone who is looking for a friendly, fun, compassionate and warm therapist!

Better help and Raeleen have been extremely helpful.
So far we’ve only had one session but Raelene has been very helpful
Raelene is so comprehensive. I like the fact she tries to cover all the open points at each session. She also tries to answer to all my messages and sends me some Worksheets to push me to some reflections and make me understand more about oh our minds work.
I like that she is present and understanding during session. I never feel judged. She provides a safe calm place to process life events.
Just getting started, but I feel like having a sounding board and someone who knows what my issues are and what strategies to suggest has already been helpful.
She is insightful, gives a very neutral safe space to express ideas and feelings. I find her advice to be well grounded.
Raelene is great, she provides a safe space and gives helpful insight.
Talking to Raelene feels like talking to an old friend who isn't judgemental, understands you, empathised and offers great advice and ideas.
Raelene is an excellent counsellor. I have extremely high standards when it comes to counselling so it took me a long time to find someone who I was compatible with. She is good at listening and being where the client is at. I have truly overcome a lot in a very short amount of time. I have much better interpersonal relationships and a better outlook on life. I really appreciate everything that she was able to do for me.
She is very helpful and understanding
Amazing counsellor who frames and reframed my thoughts in such a helpful way.
She has helped me so much and is so understanding and kind.
I’ve been working with Raelene since the summer and she has been wonderful. She listens, is supportive, and gives helpful insight and advice. I would definitely recommend her! It only took a couple of sessions for me to feel completely comfortable talking with her, which I am very happy with since this is my first experience with a counselor. All-in-all, Raelene has been a great counselor!
Raelene Faught has helped me in just a short time with her to find ways to control my anger, emotions and work though everyday life issues. She reminds me of my boundaries with others and encourages me a lot in our messages back and forth. She is supportive and is there when I need to talk. She is always there when I need someone to talk to quickly and responds as quick as she can.
Raelene is the best, she doesn't tell me how to solve my issues but helps guide me towards the right answers. Also lets me vent about nonsense half the time. Shes the best.
She's great!
She truly is amazing. I’ve struggled through so much and I consider Raelene someone I can easily open up to. Her tips are super helpful and I find that she offers a really personalized experience. Would highly recommend using her, especially if you’re younger (teens to late 20s) since she is relatable and really understands our generation.
Raelene listens and cut right to the point on things.
my first experience in therapy but it's better than what I expected
She has been attentive, insightful and easy to "talk" too.
She always checks in on how Im doing almost daily and she addresses and provides solution for my major concerns and issues. I also feel comfortable engaging with her.
I've been working with Raelene for about 3-4 weeks now, and I have had an excellent experience! She's empathetic, patient, and just so sweet! I'd totally recommend her!
A wonderful and very empathetic councelor. I'm very glad to have been matched with her.
Raelene is more like a friend than a therapist. She always knows what to say to me when I'm upset and she always listens to me.
I have been involved in therapy since I was 16 and I have been looking for someone like Raelene. She is very intelligent and asks great questions. I feel as though she genuinely listens to what I say and adjusts accordingly. I am very particular in regards to what I feel I need from a therapist and Raelene is just that. I am very happy with my current experience and hope others find the same peace of mind.
Raelene is very understanding and compassionate. In the few weeks that she has been working with me, She was able to be the support that I needed while helping me determine my goals.
She’s great!
