Hello! My name is Rachel. You don’t have to deal with your struggles alone. I am here to listen to your story.


I have over 10 years of experience working intensively with people who have substance use disorders, anxiety, trauma, depression & PTSD. My previous experience as a Clinical Director allowed me the honor of witnessing the transformation that happens in a person's life through therapeutic work. I believe in you and trust the process. My philosophies are strengths-based, person-centered with confidence that there is always hope. I serve as guide to assist you in healing and implementing changes so you can live a happier, healthier life.

The client-therapist relationship is one of the most important components of therapy. It is important you find the right fit. That is why I offer a free initial consultation. I am offering telehealth sessions and have evening availability to meet your needs.

Dr. Dowon Choi

Dr. Dowon Choi

Psychologist

Virtual • Texas


I'm a licensed psychologist, an assistant professor at a public university, and — in an earlier life — a musician who led a band around Hongdae in Seoul. I was born and raised in Korea and have since lived and worked across the U.S. and in Vietnam, so I know the experience of living between cultures from the inside.

I work with adults, adolescents, and children, in English and Korean, on ADHD and executive functioning; anxiety, stress, and depression; giftedness, creativity, and high performance (including performers and creative professionals); and bicultural and Korean-American identity, acculturation, and family dynamics across generations. I also see couples and families.

My doctorate is from one of the very few APA-accredited Combined (Counseling & School Psychology) programs in North America, and I've researched creativity and giftedness for more than ten years. Most of my work is by telehealth.
