Do you struggle to recall happy moments from your childhood? Do you struggle to trust people and simultaneously long for connection? Do you suspect that the abuse you endured in early childhood has triggered an onslaught of personal issues today? Have you been treated for depression, anxiety, PTSD, mood swings, sleep difficulties and relationship conflict only to find yourself stuck with the same issues despite that treatment? Are you spacey, forgetful or easily triggered? You are not alone. When you are ready to process your trauma and reclaim your life, I’m here. You do not need to carry those burdens alone.

Kids face all sorts of pressures, choices, challenges, and traumas in our culture today that affect the way they connect and engage with their worlds around them. It can look like anxiety, depression, behavioral acting out, emotional walling-off, etc. I work with children and families to investigate and discover what's needed to repair and rebuild the damaged or broken pieces that affect kids day to day. As a parent, you're hoping for ways to help understand what your child is going through and learn more effective ways of supporting them through the hard places so that your family can find its sense of peace, love, and connection.

WHY HORSES? Often times we feel stuck or unsure how to move forward, how to cope, how to communicate, or how to connect. Horses provide the opportunity for humans to explore and discover their abilities to do all of those things by providing authentic bio-feedback. The truth is, horses don’t lie! In providing bio-feedback, human partners become self -aware, as well as identify ways to cultivate a meaningful, empathic, and reciprocal relationship, become more mindful, regulate where needed, and eventually create healthier thought and behavior patterns.

Life is full of unexpected twists and turns. I believe therapy can provide meaningful exploration of your mental, physical, and spiritual well-being in order for you to navigate these issues. Whether it is stress from work, relationships, issues related to school, or anxiety from your environment, I will assist you in processing those issues while strengthening your esteem and perspective.

I believe the therapeutic relationship is one of the strongest tools we can develop for healing. As a psychotherapist, I strive to create an authentic, person-centered, non-judgmental environment for all individuals seeking help. My clients are the experts in their lives and they engage in therapy to better understand external/internal changes, personality traits, relational patterns, life changes, and past and/or present trauma. Their goals vary, but similarly each individual desires to understand themselves with greater clarity and self-compassion. Together, we look at the whole self which is not limited to just the mind.

I understand that your emotional health and relationships are important, and you deserve to receive quality assistance with these vital aspects of your life. The cornerstone of my practice is the belief in the importance of each client's perspective, their wishes and needs. I believe every client with whom I work deserves personalized care, respect, and responsiveness. This attitude helps clients feel safe opening up and trying new ways of approaching life's challenges. Whether you seek individual, couples, or family therapy (or perhaps some combination of these) I invite you to call.

Hello, I'm Rachel! I am a multi-disciplinary therapist and I approach counseling with an open heart and listening ear. Life often unfolds differently than we anticipate. When we come face to face with pain, anxiety, depression, feeling stuck, or relational issues, we can sometimes feel alone and isolated. The good news is: you are not alone. There is a way through, and we can navigate that together.

I have been in the counseling field for over 25 years. I have helped survivors of abuse and domestic violence, the LBGQT community, and adolescents. I primarily incorporate CBT but that is not the only theory I use. It depends on the needs of my clients. Recently I was trained in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for trauma. ICurrently I’m only doing tele sessions. My clients range from adolescence to adult. Most of my current clients are experiencing anxiety, depression, and trauma. My goal as a counselor is to help individuals reach their full potential to lead productive successful lives based on their needs and desires

Whether you are seeking therapy to process specific life events, develop coping mechanisms to better manage stressors, feel stuck, or simply want to better yourself, I believe therapy can help. I have experience working with a wide range of diagnoses and presenting problems from PTSD, depression, and anxiety, to processing grief and loss, life changes, and interpersonal relationships. I take an approach that is client-centered and integrative. Humans are complex beings and I believe that one of the first steps to healing is fully understanding and accepting ourselves.

I believe in the power of telling and owning our stories. We all have different experiences that shape the way we view our lives and the world around us. My heart is for people and giving them the space to safely share their story and process through the experiences they have, both joyous and difficult.

Therapy is a journey and lived experience. The connection, empowerment, and shifts I get to be apart of are what keep me motivated and striving to be the therapist that I am. My hope is to empower clients through connection and collaboration and I feel honored to be invited on your journey. In my free time, I practice self-care through my own therapeutic journey, I enjoy playing and watching hockey, I enjoy hiking in the Foothills, I take my dog “Bella" to her favorite places, and spend time with my closest friends and family. Should you invite me on your journey, I hope to help you to reach your therapeutic goals.

Do you struggle with a sense of failure?...An avoidance of being yourself for fear of rejection or criticism?...Are you anxious or sad and overwhelmed?... Inner struggles often result in outward stress and confusion in relationships, parenting, work or school performance, and life enjoyment. It's time for you to step out of the shadows of self-doubt and worry. Therapy can help you feel better about yourself and your relationships, while also providing effective tools for handling challenges. You deserve a fulfilling life that includes feeling good about yourself and enjoying your important relationships.

Welcome to my psychoanalytic practice for children, adolescents, and adults. Our minds have a huge influence on how we think and feel each day; slowing down and noticing subtle aspects of ourselves with a trained analyst can provide much needed integration of powerful emotions that have not yet had a voice for expression. People can articulate emotions without feeling them, experience emotions in the body, can't find words, and unthinkingly go into action never quite feeling satisfied. Psychoanalytic work can involve the experience of play, and with kids, play will be the work. Integrating feelings and thoughts vitalizes human life.

Do you find yourself struggling with a heaviness that you just can’t seem to shake? I understand what it feels like to be burnt out on life and have everything start to feel like it’s just “too much.” You may be asking yourself questions like, “Why doesn’t anyone else understand how hard this has been for me?”, “Where is the support that I thought I would have?”, “Why am I so confused and frustrated with my life?”, and “Why do I feel so stuck?” Maybe you feel like your relationships are struggling or your work performance is lacking. You’ve finally hit the breaking point and have started exploring ways to get the support you need...

Are you worried your relationship is in trouble? Are you a couple stuck in an emotional tug of war, your communication isn't working or if you're highly self-critical, find that you tend to "settle" when you're lonely or keep repeating the same behaviors that no longer work, I can help. Whether you are experiencing a difficult relationship event, not communicating, or need help falling back in love, I will help you address these challenges. I work with individuals and couples who want to develop a deeper understanding of themselves, shift out of patterns that no longer serve them and take steps towards a renewed connection.
