Are you easily overwhelmed or overstimulated by things others seem to handle with ease? Do you feel different from others? Easily misunderstood? Are relationships a struggle? Do you feel like you don't know who you are or what you want in life? If any of these resonate, you’ve come to the right place! I support and find a special connection with clients experiencing these very same things. Additionally, I value working with clients who are experiencing OCD, trauma manifestations, anxiety and depression, anger issues, life transitions, grief, suicidal ideation, low self-esteem, religious or faith-related challenges, and more.

Wounds often shape our life's choices without our knowledge of their presence. Life is hard and these wounds can wear on us over time. Are you unsure if you're struggling with an addiction and you feel like your substance may be wreaking havoc on your life and your relationships? It takes courage to ask for help. I can meet you where you are and we can explore this together in an environment that is free of shame and judgement. Successful therapy involves a collaborative relationship where clients risk to uncover wounds and challenge unhelpful family structures.

I believe identity is a critical part of self-understanding and healing. For this reason, I enjoy working with folks who are looking to explore their identities which might include sexuality, gender, race, religion, physical and mental ability, and roles in society. I am cognizant that our identities shape our personal and lived experiences in the world, and this continually impacts how and what we need to heal. I approach therapy from a non-religious standpoint, but have a deep interest in how religion impacts people, including ways that it can act as a source of trauma, while also acknowledging that it can be a source of support.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been passionate about understanding people, truly seeing them. This innate curiosity and deep respect for the human spirit naturally drew me towards the field of therapy, where I could facilitate transformative processes in others. Witnessing individuals overcome adversity, confront their vulnerabilities, and ultimately discover their own strength is a source of profound inspiration. I love helping others to rejuvenate their lives and begin to dream big once again through empathy, active listening, and the ability to create a safe and supportive environment.

Hello there! My clients have experienced success with me in working through career problems, relationship/attachment issues, self-esteem, panic, anxiety, emotion regulation, neurodivergence, multicultural relations, and parenting concerns. I help you establish tangible goals while exploring deeper patterns and insights. My clients typically work through pressing matters that brought them to therapy on a more frequent basis, titrating down once stability has been established and adjusting to longer-term needs. I am open to seeing any client who is appropriate for talk therapy.

Hi there! I’m Rachel Haroldsen, armed with a fancy degree proclaiming me a mental health therapist, and the licensing boards of Idaho and Missouri gave me the thumbs up as a mental health counselor too! Honestly, life’s wild ride is what led me to this gig. I’ve got your back when it comes to trauma because I’ve been through the wringer myself. Kids? Oh, I totally get them, especially the “hard” and “naughty” ones—because, surprise, I was once a little rebel! Relationship drama? Don’t even get me started! And religious trauma? Yep, been there, done that!

Many people with anxiety attempt to control their thoughts, avoid, or perform behaviors to prevent unease or a negative outcome, only for worry to return. This feels intuitive, but actually prolongs distress long-term by reinforcing the ideas of intolerance and that there is something to fear. It's human nature to experience some discomfort. With Exposure Therapy, you can gradually minimize fears with support and thrive *in spite of* discomforts the brain, body, & life send your way. Let's replace the confinements of certainty with the freedom of uncertainty.
