About Rachel
License #: 68618I am an experienced clinical social worker with over 25 years in the helping professions and nearly 20 years in private practice. I work in depth with adults across many life stages and value a collaborative approach that feels thoughtful, grounded, and encouraging. Earlier in my career, I was a middle school English teacher. Reading the fairy tales my students wrote sparked a lasting interest in how people make meaning of their lives and how personal stories shape the way we think, feel, and act. Over time, this led me to pursue advanced training in psychotherapy. Clients often describe me as a good listener who is practical and reflective, helping them sort through what matters most and find a way forward that feels right to them.
My Therapeutic Approach
My work is individualized and flexible, shaped by your needs rather than a one-size-fits-all method. At its core, therapy is a collaborative process in which we work together to understand what is happening in your life and why it matters. We pay attention to both inner and outer concerns. This may include emotions, long-standing patterns, and ways of thinking, as well as relationships, work, health, and life transitions. Therapy often involves gaining insight, strengthening emotional awareness, and identifying practical next steps. At times, images, dreams, or attention to the body can offer another way into understanding when words alone are not enough.
Who I Help Best
I work best with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief or loss, relationship difficulties, health challenges, or major life transitions. Many people come to therapy feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about what comes next, even when things look “fine” on the outside. Clients who tend to benefit most from my style are thoughtful and open to reflection. They value a collaborative relationship and appreciate a therapist who can be both steady and encouraging while supporting meaningful, real-world change.
What a First Session Is Like
The first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and to focus on what brings you to therapy right now. I aim to create a safe, respectful, and confidential space where you can speak freely and at your own pace. We’ll talk about your concerns, relevant background, and what you hope for from therapy. I may ask questions to better understand your situation, and you’re always welcome to ask questions as well. By the end of the session, most people have a clearer sense of whether this feels like a good fit and how therapy might support them moving forward.
