Welcome to Lotus Rock Counseling, LLC! My name is Raquel and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 10 years of clinical experience helping diverse populations. I am able to provide outpatient telehealth therapy for those residing in New Jersey. My clients can expect to work with someone who is caring and committed to supporting them on their journey to living their best lives. Utilizing approaches that are proven to be effective, I work together with clients to build on the strengths they already possess. Clients can learn a variety of coping skills to best address their needs.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Starting counseling can be a huge first step and might be anxiety-provoking for some clients. Please rest assured that clients will be met with compassion and non-judgment in a safe space. Trust can take time in a therapeutic relationship so clients are encouraged to move at their own pace as they work towards their personal goals.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I am driven to support and empower clients to meet their goals using trauma-informed and culturally sensitive care. I am genuine, warm, empathetic, empowering and have a sense of humor. I focus on making sure all areas of wellness are addressed and I encourage clients to practice self-care and self-compassion. I can help motivate clients to feel comfortable expressing their thoughts and emotions including those that may feel painful and uncomfortable. I am dedicated to helping clients become the best versions of themselves.
