The status quo tells us we can’t trust ourselves, our knowing, or our bodies. Rachael believes that our innate knowing - when we can access it, is not only the gold we seek, but the light we shine for ourselves and in the world around us. From experience with eating disorders, self-injury, trauma, chronic pain, couples and larger family systems and the LGBTQIA umbrella to professional work in issue focused non-profits/campaigns (and even performing), Rachael is deeply in tune with the political and social ecosystems that our intersectional identities transverse on a moment to moment basis
Rachael has spent her career both in and out of the therapy room working to dismantle systems of oppression and crafting structures that treat people better - including ourselves. Rachael is a solid partner in change. She enjoys the work alongside her clients in (re)claiming their space in the world both physically and metaphorically.
Rachael is deeply committed to an anti-racist, HAES celebratory, anti-ableist, sex positive practice and looks forward to celebrating whatever your fullest self looks like. She is committed to being a lifelong student - learning about her client’s unique identities and what these mean for their experience of the world and the world’s experience of them.
