More about Rachel

  • 6 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I'm a therapist with experience supporting individuals through a range of meaningful challenges. My work centers on helping people navigate depression, anxiety, stress, and trauma, while also addressing concerns like low self-esteem, isolation, and loneliness. I'm particularly passionate about helping clients work through guilt and shame, explore their life purpose, and build confidence in social situations.

I believe that healing happens in connection—with yourself and others. I create a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can explore what's weighing on you and discover your own resilience. Whether you're processing difficult life changes, working through past experiences, or simply feeling stuck, I'm here to support you at your own pace.

My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices and a deep commitment to meeting you where you are. I'm honored to walk alongside you as you move toward greater peace and purpose.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
