Hi! I'm Rachel. I am passionate about supporting kids, teens, young adults, and families who are struggling and feeling stuck and hopeless. My ideal clients include (but are not limited to!) kids having difficulty with emotional regulation, kids navigating their parents' divorce, teens experiencing depression, and young adults wanting to heal from relational trauma. These clients want to feel heard by someone, more safe and regulated, to more deeply understand themselves, and to find a more hopeful way forward. My goal is to guide and support you in moving towards this.
My approach is warm, curious, client-centered, and trauma-informed. I specialize in working with kids, teens, young adults, and families using play therapy, sandtray therapy, CBT, and IFS. I often incorporate mindfulness and expressive arts. I purposefully tailor interventions to each client, and meet them wherever they are in each session and each moment.
Both my professional and personal life experiences have taught me that the most profound growth happens within a safe and accepting relationship — one that can be both deep and lighthearted. I would be honored to be that person for you or your child, and to help your family become that for each other. I look forward to meeting you!
