Hi, I’m Rachel. Over the past 10 years, I’ve had the privilege of helping people navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and life’s unexpected transitions. Many of the people I work with are adjusting to difficult life changes, searching for a renewed sense of purpose, or feeling anxious about speaking up, being around others, or even leaving the house.

I’m a naturally curious, growth-oriented human who believes healing happens when insight meets action. I love helping people zoom out to see the bigger picture of their lives—while also gently zooming in on the patterns, habits, and beliefs that shape their everyday experience.

I’m drawn to the intersection of self-awareness and real-world momentum. Therapy with me is thoughtful, collaborative, and grounded. We can explore the deep stuff—identity, relationships, purpose, transitions—while also building practical tools you can actually use on a Tuesday afternoon when life is lifing.

I value emotional honesty, nervous system regulation, and sustainable growth over quick fixes. I believe you’re not broken—you’re adaptive. Together, we figure out what’s working, what’s outdated, and how to move forward in a way that feels aligned, empowered, and authentically you.

Expect warmth, insight, humor when it fits, and a space where all parts of you are welcome. Healing doesn’t have to be clinical and cold—it can be connected, intentional, and even a little energizing.

There is a kind of hurt that does not just go away with time. It settles in, shapes how you move through the world, and starts to feel like just who you are now. I work with adults navigating trauma, relationship wounds, PTSD, ADHD, and stress that never seems to fully let up. I let you lead. You are the expert on your own life, and I show up as my full self to meet you there: honest, direct, and genuinely invested in the work. Clients often tell me they feel a real sense of connection early in our sessions, and that matters a lot to me.

Feeling stuck and ready to take the next step in your life? You’re not alone.

Together, we’ll identify goals that matter most to you whether that’s improving relationships, building self-esteem, addressing unresolved challenges, or figuring out what’s next when you’re ready for change but unsure where to begin.
