Do you identify as an anxious person? Does anxiety cast a shadow over your relationships, professional pursuits, confidence, and overall enjoyment of life? Do you often find yourself drained not just by the challenges of your day, but also by the persistent voice in your head or that unsettling feeling in your gut? In today's busyness, many women navigate daily life without the necessary tools to confront both the external chaos and the internal anxiety that accompanies it. I am deeply committed to the belief that, even in the face of life's trials, anxiety should not be the dominant force dictating your path.

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with over 4 years of experience working with adults and seniors seeking help with anxiety, stress, ADHD, depression, dysfunctional relationships, life transitions, and sexual dysfunction. While I work with a variety of people, my main focus is sex therapy. I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology with a concentration in Sex Therapy from Capella University. I tend to think outside the box and often incorporate coping skills or techniques that may differ from traditional methods.

I practice transpersonal and parapsychology. I work with people who have had a Spiritually Transformative Experience (STE). For example, some people have had a Near Death Experience (NDE), or some are grieving the loss of a loved one and still feel connected to that person. Others are experiencing a spiritual awakening and would like a facilitator during this transcendental journey. Some individuals are working through religious trauma and need guidance and support. I also welcome those who feel they have advanced psychic abilities, such as: clairvoyance, clairsentience, remote viewing, lucid dreaming, and psychokinesis.

Growing up with family members living with mental illness gave me a deeply personal perspective on how important compassionate high quality mental health care is for clients and families. I am passionate about helping adolescents, adults, and families with managing life transitions and coping with change, anxiety and depression, parenting, career issues, burnout, adjustment to disability and chronic illness, substance abuse, stress management, and lasting lifestyle behavioral change. I truly believe you can't heal what you don't feel, and I strive to provide a safe place for processing feelings and emotions.

The beautiful thing about therapy is that everyone has unique experiences, so it only makes sense that therapy will look a little different for everyone. In the same way that individuals differ, therapists differ as well. It is always my priority to provide a safe, comfortable, welcoming environment where you feel secure in navigating life’s many ups and downs. You’ll find that I also show up to the therapy room with authenticity, compassion, acceptance, and sometimes a little humor. I enjoy taking a laid back, curious approach to therapy so I can work to more fully understand an individual’s unique lived experience.

Hi, I am Rachel and I am looking forward to connecting! Humans have a wide range of emotions and it’s okay to need some support navigating them. People come to therapy for lots of different reasons and sometimes they don’t even know the reason until several sessions later. It’s brave just to start! My goal is to meet clients where they are at and help them develop mindsets that allow them to evolve mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually, or in their own way. I firmly believe our mental health matters and it has an affect on every aspect of our lives!

www.wmlwellness.com - People seek counseling for many reasons, but I believe that enhanced awareness and acceptance are pivotal to understanding how personal histories have shaped how we perceive ourselves, others, and the environment in which we function. Therapy provides the opportunity for growth, self-discovery, and insight in an emotionally supportive environment. Each client is unique in their strengths and struggles, so therapeutic approaches are individually tailored for an optimally successful experience. I use an eclectic theoretical orientation to help clients identify meaning in their lives and create goals to move.

Fat, Black, Neurodivergent, Queer. This is your safe space to feel seen, heard, validated, affirmed, and celebrated. Experiencing oppression, a lack of safety in who you are, living in a world deeply not made for you. I understand how painful this can be, and I also understand that it’s possible to build your own world. Surrounded by the right people, and with a profound sense of self-worth. As you go through life your relationship with others and even yourself can bring stress, anger, hopelessness, and other emotions which become too much to handle alone.
