I help high-achieving women and AFAB people work with the stressors of adult ADHD, menopause, burnout, and divorce - en français et en anglais. I work online in California and internationally with expats and third culture kids. I have a liberation/depth/Jungian orientation and an engaged, relational approach, grounded in modern research on the brain, trauma and attachment, which includes EMDR. I believe the goal of therapy is to realistically become who you truly are, not to fix you, or tell you how to be. I'm LGB-, queer- and trans-affirming, and I don't expect you to be white!
Specialties include: menopause and perimenopause, adult ADHD, adult children of alcoholics, third culture kids, workplace bullying and burnout, divorce and other forced transitions, identity and immigration, climate grief and anxiety, despair and depression, EMDR.
Bilingue en francais/anglais. British, born in Asia, lived for many years in France before moving to the US. I understand the corporate world, having spent 20 years in it. I teach at the California Institute of Integral Studies and I write the Ethnopsychology Blog. I'm a member of the Climate Psych Alliance.

I feel lucky to have had her as both professor and supervisor. Rachel brings rare depth, warmth, and cross-cultural sensitivity. Her understanding of corporate stress, identity, and immigrant experience has shaped how I think about therapy.

Rachael is warm, whip-smart, and has a great sense of humor. She can sit with you in heartache and in jubilation. Most importantly, she will be real with you, as she has been with me.
