Hi, I’m Dr. Rachel.
Authentic. Transparent. Active. Direct.
I’m so glad you’re here. Working with a therapist can be daunting, but it doesn’t have to be.
Here’s my promise to you:
What you see is what you get: there are no mind games or guess-work when working with me.
I am incredibly engaged in each and every session and if it needs to be said, it will be.
I believe that you can only move forward if you’re honest with where you are…so let’s start there.
Stepping into something more or different is possible. Whether you know what that looks like or are just beginning to explore, now is the perfect time to talk it out.
I can help you get clear on who you want to be, how you want to live, and what you need to do to get there.
This is your journey. I’m just here to help you make decisions with clarity and confidence.
It’s YOUR life. Let’s reclaim it.
Therapy Focus Areas
I work with individuals and couples in a virtual setting, especially helping with:
Relationship doubts
If those don’t totally fit for you, but the vibe of this page does, let’s still chat.

My Process
01.
Schedule Your Free Consultation Call
Start by filling out the contact form using the button below. I’ll follow up via email with a link to my calendar so you can choose a time that works for you. During our 20-minute phone call, we’ll discuss your goals, I’ll ask a few background questions to assess fit, and you’ll have a chance to ask me anything you'd like about the therapy process.
02.
Begin with a Personalized First Session
If we’re a good fit, we’ll schedule your first full session. This session is all about gathering the information I need to understand your background, concerns, and goals. Together, we’ll develop a treatment plan that’s tailored to your needs and preferences, setting the foundation for our work together.
03.
Ongoing Sessions Focused on Your Goals
In follow-up sessions, we’ll begin working toward the goals we identified using the therapeutic approaches we agreed upon. I typically recommend weekly sessions at first to build momentum and recognize patterns, but I’ll always collaborate with you to find a rhythm that fits your life.
Still feeling unsure?
You’ll love working together if you…
feel so overwhelmed you don’t know where to start, be it in your career, your relationship, or some other major life transition
are invested in exploring what it might be like to think, feel, or behave in different ways
crave living more confidently and boldly
want to be asked questions, given feedback, and explore other perspectives
appreciative of a conversational, no-B.S. approach
interested in celebrating the small wins along the way
open to colorful language, including the occasional swear word
You truly can feel a sense of calm confidence again. I’m here to help you.
Don’t just take my word for it
“Dr. Rachel is warm and approachable yet direct and straightforward. Her style of communication and no-nonsense personality are the perfect match for emerging young adults seeking support in navigating significant life transitions and challenges.”
