Hello and welcome!

Hi, I’m Rachel! I’m so glad you are here.

I enjoy working with women who struggle with stress and anxiety, depression, family conflicts, motherhood stress, communication issues, parenting issues, and difficulties with motivation and self esteem. I am especially passionate about helping women conquer pregnancy and/or postpartum mental health.

It is important to me to help women gain insight into how early life experiences and patterns developed in the past could be impacting their present and future. Tangible coping skills to use immediately to better manage stress is also something I try to instill in each session.

Taking the first step to seek a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage and I am honored to support you in that process.

I believe that everyone deserves to have an active role in their treatment. It is vital to me that our work together is tailored to your unique and specific needs.

My goal is to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are, without feeling judged or pressured to have everything figured out. Together, we'll work on understanding what's keeping you stuck, building confidence, and helping you feel more at peace with yourself and your life.

Rachel is not accepting new clients and currently has a waiting list. If you would like to be placed on her waiting list, please just let us know.

A little more personal

What are things you like to do for fun?  

Outside of work, I enjoy reading, baking, shopping, and spending time with friends. I’m always up for a day of dilly dallying, exploring, or finding something fun to do. I also love a good slow morning, trying new recipes, and taking pictures of the things (my dog) and people I love the most.
If you could permanently eliminate one adult responsibility, what would it be?

Putting away laundry. Washing it is one thing. Putting it away sends me into orbit. 

What's a completely unnecessary purchase that brought you an unreasonable amount of joy?

A bicycle! I recently bought one and have made it my entire personality. Apparently, I just needed to remember that I have free will and now I have a new hobby.

What’s your most useless talent?

This is so random, but for some reason I can foundation match anyone just by looking at them. I never miss. If you don’t know your shade, I got you. 

What's one piece of advice you give clients that you sometimes need to remind yourself of?

One piece of advice I often give clients (and sometimes need to remind myself of) is that a decision is a choice, not a feeling. We can spend so much time waiting to feel certain, confident, or ready before taking a step forward. But sometimes we have to make a choice while uncertainty is still present and trust ourselves to navigate what comes next.

You deserve a safe space to heal from your struggles and thrive in your life and relationships.
