I’m Rachael, a licensed professional counselor in Washington, DC, a counselor educator, and the owner of Stargazer Counseling & Consulting LLC. My practice offers supportive services centered around authenticity, compassion, creativity, and collaboration. I specialize in working with adults navigating trauma, stress, and anxiety, offering a grounded, compassionate space to explore your experiences and support your growth.
My approach integrates somatic work, EMDR, Gestalt, IFS, and mindfulness. Together, we deepen awareness, foster nervous system regulation, and attend to root causes of distress. I use a both/and approach—supporting relief from daily symptoms while also exploring deeper healing for lasting well-being.
What makes my practice unique is my commitment to honoring both the wisdom of the body and the broader cultural and contextual realities that shape us. I do this work because I believe deeply in the power of relationships and community, and the strength it takes to engage in healing. It’s an honor to support clients on their journeys.
