I'm Rachel, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a 200-hour certified yoga teacher; I work with adults navigating the ups and downs of life; especially those wrestling with trauma, anxiety, stress, or major life transitions. Whether you're carrying the weight of past experiences or simply feeling overwhelmed by the day-to-day, you don’t have to go it alone. In therapy, I create a warm, down-to-earth space where humor is welcome, emotions are honored, and practical tools are always available. I integrate a variety of evidence-based approaches, including CBT, mindfulness, IFS-informed work, DBT skills, and problem-solving therapy.
My background in yoga also informs a gentle, body-aware approach to healing, helping clients reconnect with themselves from the inside out. I have a special heart for working with veterans and first responders. I understand the unique challenges that come with serving others and holding difficult experiences, with various close loved ones in these fields.
I’m here to support you in carrying less of a burden. Therapy doesn’t have to feel clinical or intimidating. With the right fit, it can feel like a breath of fresh air — a space to exhale, reflect, grow, and even laugh. If you’re curious about how we might work together, reach out for a free consultation. I’d be glad to connect. Now accepting new clients.
