Rachel is a social worker who is passionate about supporting the LGBTQ+ community — a community she is also proudly part of. In sessions, Rachel strives to foster a safe environment where anything can be brought up without any judgment. She has been described as a calming presence and someone who is easy to talk to. It can be difficult to reach out for support in general, but it can be even more so for BIPOC individuals and those who are living with chronic pain and/or chronic illness. Rachel takes great care to make sessions a comfortable place to be authentically who you are.

I have helped clients and families through issues including anxiety and depression, parenting challenging children, career difficulties, issues related to sexuality and gender identity, ADHD, life stress, work-life balance, relationship issues, and more. As someone who has struggled with both anxiety and depression at various points in my life, I come at the therapeutic process with both personal and professional knowledge, and always keep in mind those things that were most helpful to me when I was the one seeking a therapist.

I believe that problems develop relationally and therefore it makes sense to solve them relationally: to seek resolution through genuine understanding is the work of therapy. In my experience, the relief that clients seek is contingent upon being seen as they are, and as they want to be seen, and feeling understood.
