About

I'd like to think that's its not so much about me being a better therapist than the next but rather the relationship being a good fit for you. If it feels right and you feel comfortable with me then We proceed.

I love showing my clients an alternate perspective. Helping people to learn about themselves and develop new strategies to live a calmer life is what it's all about!

    Nicole H.

    Rachel demonstrated a level of kindness and professionalism that I greatly appreciated from a therapist.
    She was instrumental in my journey as I navigated my divorce and trying to figure out what it was that I needed to heal from it, how to better value myself as a person, and how to set better boundaries with those around me.
    She also taught me that its okay to say no to people when they have gone too far and she helped me to start loving myself again when I had really stopped due to a number of years of abuse.
    I would recommend her for PTSD, Trauma, and Abuse counseling as she has a warm heart and is very compassionate for her clients. She also keeps it quite real and will be direct with you and honest if you ask her to do so.
    Without her, I would not be in the place I am today.

    I always new being a therapist was for me! I love helping people! I wanted to create an atmosphere in which people feel safe and welcome. Your experience is the most important aspect of therapy for me. 

    I have worked with men, women and couples ranging from premarital to post infidelity. I specialize in work with Veterans and First Responders. 

    Creating my own business this past year has been the most amazing experience. Being able to help over 200 people a week through the practice has been a huge blessing! 

    Find a professional you click with! Not every therapist is for every person. Some are more laid back while others are more direct. Some share more some don't share at all. Think about what experience and relationship you want and ask questions!
