Hello! I primarily work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, and PTSD. I am master-level certified in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) and have completed both EMDR trainings (EMDR I and II), which allows me to support clients in processing trauma and other difficult life stressors with care and intention. I believe people are capable of incredible growth and change, and that often they already have the strength within them—they may just need a little support, guidance, and encouragement along the way. Can't wait to meet with you!

Offering in person EMDR as well as OCD treatment in person and online. Do you have unwanted, intrusive thoughts stuck on a loop in your head, and do you struggle with letting seemingly simple things go? Does your mind feel like a broken record? Living with anxiety and OCD is exhausting. Perhaps you’re stuck in memories from a past event, like a painful relationship or beating yourself up over past choices. This can cause anxiety, depression, jumpiness, irritability, and rob you of the enjoyment available to you today.

Life can feel heavy sometimes. You might be carrying anxiety that never seems to quiet down, feeling stuck in the same relationships or patterns, or simply wondering why you're working so hard just to keep up. I see therapy as one human sitting with another. Yes, I have training and experience that guide the work we do, but I'm also just a person. I don't believe healing happens because someone has all the answers. I think it happens in a relationship where you feel safe enough to be honest, curious enough to explore, and supported enough to try something different

Hi, I'm Rachel! If you're visiting my profile, you're already thinking about making a big change in your life. Beginning therapy can be very daunting, especially if you've never tried it before. My approach to therapy is that each person is unique, so therapy is rarely a "one size fits all" experience. Together we'll figure out what's going wrong, what's going right, and how to help you to feel equipped to cope with life's many challenges. Clients who work well with me are interested in exploring trauma, breaking relational patterns, improving coping and communication skills, reducing patterns of perfectionism, and finding balance.

Women's Issues Therapists
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.

How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.

How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.

How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
