I’m Rachel, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who is certified in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). My goal is to create a safe and empowering space for my clients because our teenage and young adult years can be stressful and overwhelming to navigate with all of the different life changes that continue to happen. As we continue to grow as individuals, we are constantly trying to identify and discover who we are and who we want to be. This no longer has to be a process that you work...
The most important part of building a therapeutic relationship is to know that I am not the expert of your life. I use empathy and create a non-judgmental environment, allowing humor and the collaborative effort to work towards realistic goals. I want you to feel comfortable and at ease to tell your story and work on the current challenges taking place in your life. I want this to be a team effort and establish the goals you are wanting. My role is to provide comfort and support, as you develop...

I work with young women and LGBTQ+ folks with anxiety, perfectionism, and people-pleasing tendencies. You set goals for yourself that aren’t reachable, and you feel like you’re failing, though from the outside it may look like you have it together. You know that the patterns in your life aren’t working, yet it’s hard to identify what to change and make those changes on your own. It’s a big step to even recognize that you might benefit from therapy. Therapy can help you make those changes so t...

Hey there! I am so glad you're here. When I was growing up, I quickly learned that there were few places I could be truly myself and accepted just as I am. As a therapist, I've discovered many of us share that same story. We learn to conform and perform in response to the pressure of our world telling us who to be, and we are left confused, ashamed, and exhausted when it becomes too much to maintain as adults. In my work with clients, I offer space for you to be exactly who you are, wherever you...

I work with individuals, couples and groups, helping them feel more connected to themselves and others. I specia...
You have the weight of the world on your shoulders, and have for a very long time. As a child, you had to grow up quickly and take on adult roles, because you had a parent who wasn’t always able to be fully present. Overwhelming emotional pain weighs on you. And you’ve found that the emotional pain shows up as physical pain too - a literal heartache, muscle aches, or back pain. You’ve also lost your appetite or find yourself eating more than usual. You went through something horrific. And you th...

They want to be their authentic selves and live each day with inten...
Are you depressed, confused, or angry? Do you sleep more and more each day? Do you question your place in the world? Are you trying to make sense of life? Are you having a crisis of faith or experiencing a mid-life crisis? Do you see people all day and feel as if you are alone? Have you had a difficult time relating to friends and/or family?
