I tried therapy once and had a very poor connection with the therapist, my whole world seemed oversimplified and superficial. I am so relieved and thankful I got connected with Rachel, it was probably what I needed the first and last time I engaged in therapy. I enjoyed her directness and active listening style. I am thankful, it felt like I landed safely at a chaotic time in the world

I'm a licensed therapist in Minnesota with extensive experience supporting individuals through a wide range of life challenges. I work with clients navigating depression, anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, and trauma, as well as major life transitions like divorce, grief, and identity shifts.
My approach is grounded in compassion and practical support. I specialize in helping clients build self-compassion, improve communication, process guilt and shame, and develop healthy coping strategies. I'm particularly skilled at working with social anxiety, panic, codependency, mood disorders, and posttraumatic stress. I also support first responders, caregivers, and those facing financial stress or existential questions about life purpose.
I understand that healing looks different for everyone. Whether you're working through isolation, control patterns, infidelity, or self-harm, I'm here to meet you where you are with respect and genuine care. I'm committed to creating a therapeutic space that honors your values and supports your growth toward wholeness and peace.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I found Rachel to be extremely thoughtful. She carefully listened to my concerns, and encouraged me in the things I was doing well, while giving me ideas of new things to try. I felt reassured and heard. I would strongly recommend her!
