About me

Welcome! I’m so happy you’re here and considering starting therapy. Im Rachel, a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas, with over 10 years of experience. My goal for therapy is to create a truly safe, empathetic, non-judgmental space in a collaborative journey towards healing and wholeness. I have treated a wide range of clients including those dealing with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and beyond. I am also a fierce advocate and ally for LGBT+ clients. I have training in several different modalities but most often lean on Relational therapy, trauma-informed CBT, and Solutions Focused therapy. It is my goal to create an approach that meets each client’s unique needs. I am far from a “blank slate” therapist, and I tend to be more active than passive in sessions. At the exact same time - I want my clients to count on me as someone who can attune to them, who’s down to earth and who will be their loudest cheerleader.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

I want every client I meet with to feel heard, seen and cared of. Whether I end up being your long-term fit or not, I want to focus on getting to know you in our first session together to create a collaborative plan that will serve you well. We will discuss what brings you to therapy, your goals and your background, along with anything else that might be related. We will then make a plan for a follow-up sessions from there.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Beginning therapy can be a nerve wracking experience. I feel like what I offer is an empathetic, compassionate, understanding and a down-to-earth solution-oriented approach to therapy. I am here to support you every step of the way, trusting that you are the expert in your own life. I work hard to read/learn constantly in my professional life, and I’ll never suggest anything to you I’m not actively working on practicing in my own life. I am so passionate about this work and I want to do everything in my power to help you thrive.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I am well versed and trained in a variety of modalities, and I love working with a wide range of clients to help them achieve their unique goals. If you are willing to show up and try to be vulnerable and to make positive changes, you are my ideal client, and I already deeply respect you for that effort.

I loved how Rachel switched things up and asked me questions about my academic projects and priorities today!

Rachel has been through it ALL with me. She is very open-minded and relatable to what I am going through. She's given me the confidence and tools I needed to put up boundaries and hold them firm with family and friends. Rachel has helped me work through multiple diagnoses (adhd, anxiety and ocd) and to see the positives with being neurodivergent.
