Hello! I am Rachel, an individual and family therapist and licensed independent clinical social worker. I work with teens and adults, offering both individual and family therapy. I specialize in working with clients who have anxiety, panic attacks, ADHD, autism, and depression. I also support clients experiencing phobias, OCD, grief/loss, and trauma.

Accepting new clients in person only. Often mental health issues such as depression and anxiety manifest from unresolved trauma and/or an inability to know or express one's true self. I approach life dilemmas through an existential lens to find hope and meaning through suffering and by increasing awareness and potential for choice and being. I enjoy helping people explore their authentic selves by asking the question “What does it look like to be me?” Integrating the answers with spiritual, emotional, physical, and social aspects of their beings, I help others to live a more fulfilling life.

I have experience and great passion for helping those individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, fear, and the memories of past traumatic experiences that continue to have an affect on how they live their lives today. After meeting with and learning more about you, we will together decide on the most effective type of therapy to help you move forward with your life. Many therapies can be successful but I believe it ultimately comes down to the relationship that develops between the client and therapist, and the amount of work and effort put into making change happen.

Life can be hard. Lonely. Confusing. Painful. As woman, we are called on to do a lot and to be a lot - often at the expense of our own health and well-being. When loss or a major life transition occur, it can become too much to handle. Overwhelm floods in. We can reach a breaking point. Are you struggling to function well in your daily life, plagued by sleepless nights, physical discomforts, illness, apathy … just going through the motions of living? Do you worry your relationships are being impacted too much by nagging bad moods or angry outbursts? It doesn't have to be this way. You don't have to do this alone. I can help.

We all experience hurt, worry, and stressful experiences along our life journey. When you are most exhausted and vulnerable, therapy can provide hope and direction towards healing. Sometimes going at it alone isn’t enough, and we need someone to walk alongside us as we work through life. My aim in therapy is to help you with life's complexities by strengthening your hope and purpose and finding a pathway to meet that goal. There is no judgment, shame, or guilt but a safe place for vulnerable moments for everyone, regardless of background, political position, or belief system.

Whether you are experiencing an especially difficult season or just want to learn more about why you get caught in painful, repetitive cycles, together we can explore what brings you to therapy and your personal goals for healing. Current neurobiology shows us that through a healthy therapeutic relationship we can learn new ways to relate to ourselves and others, enabling us to heal from past hurts and live into our full selves. I provide a welcome space for childen, adults, and couples to explore what is hurting them and to open up a path to deeper connection, meaning, and joy.
