Trauma touches all our lives in one way or another.
It can show up when you have a bigger reaction than you felt like you "should".
Or worrying so much about possible worst-case scenarios that you miss out on the here-and-now. Maybe it shows up as the voice that always tells you that you aren't "good enough". Or the fear of feeling your emotions fully.
It doesn't have to stay this way. Life is SO good on the other side of trauma. Dr. Rachel takes you beyond the trauma-work and into the post-traumatic growth that makes life magical again.
Dr. Rachel of Forward Conscious, LLC is an expert in treating trauma and cultivating post-traumatic growth. Dr. Rachel has over ten years of experience working with Veterans from diverse backgrounds. Forward Conscious is an inclusive and welcoming environment for all.
If you are putting in the hard work for personal growth, you deserve a psychologist that walks the walk of talk therapy. Dr. Rachel doesn't just tell you what she learned in years of study. She practices it with you. You deserve a provider that will walk alongside you in this journey. If you're ready to change, you're ready for Dr. Rachel. Reach out.
