HELLO!
My name is Rachel and I am a licensed clinical social worker who is passionate about working with teens, young adults and caregivers. I believe family and/or community support and engagement are a critical part of facilitating meaningful change and recovery for an individual.
I specialize in the treatment of trauma, mood and anxiety disorders, OCD and eating disorders. I have worked in a variety of settings, including residential, inpatient and partial hospitalization levels of care, as well as outpatient community health. I have advanced training in Emotion-Focused Family Therapy and Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD, and have experience supporting families with Family Based Treatment for eating disorders.
I value deep connection, direct communication and gentle humor in a therapeutic relationship, and I am curious and relational in my approach. I strive to create a nonjudgmental, empathetic environment where you can feel heard, validated and respected.

STILL HAVE QUESTIONS?
Feel free to contact me if you have questions about my ability to help you with what is bringing you into counseling. Transformation happens when we feel understood and accepted without judgment; I strive to provide that space for you. I became a therapist because therapy changed my life - I would be honored to partner with you on this journey of self-exploration.
