Are you feeling overwhelmed by the demands of life? Are you searching for healthier ways to cope with anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, relationship challenges, or major life and career transitions? You don't have to navigate these challenges alone—I am here to help. I provide a warm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental environment where you can feel supported, understood, and empowered to achieve your personal goals. My approach is collaborative and tailored to your unique needs, helping you develop practical coping skills, gain insight, and create meaningful, lasting change. I enjoy working with adults and have more than 20 years of experience in the behavioral health field. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, substance misuse, relationship concerns, codependency, low self-esteem, career development, and life transitions. Together, we will build on your strengths, overcome obstacles, and help you create the fulfilling life you deserve.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and it's normal to have questions or feel a little nervous. My goal is to make your first session as comfortable and welcoming as possible. During our initial session, we'll spend time getting to know one another. I'll ask questions about what brought you to therapy, the challenges you're currently facing, your personal history, and what you hope to accomplish through counseling. We'll discuss your strengths, explore any concerns you may have, and begin identifying goals that are meaningful to you. This first session is also an opportunity for you to ask questions and determine whether we're a good fit. Therapy is most effective when you feel safe, heard, and supported, and I strive to create a compassionate, nonjudgmental environment where you can openly share your thoughts and feelings. By the end of the session, we'll work together to develop an initial treatment plan tailored to your unique needs. You'll leave with a better understanding of the therapeutic process, practical strategies you can begin using right away, and a clear plan for moving forward. My goal is to help you feel empowered, supported, and hopeful as we begin your journey toward healing and lasting positive change.
Having worked in the mental health field over 20 years, I've developed a tried-and-true playbook for helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.

I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety, ADHD, life transitions, career development/changes, trauma-related symptoms, and difficulties with emotional regulation and concentration. I am particularly well-suited for clients who are seeking to increase insight into maladaptive thought patterns, improve coping skills, and enhance interpersonal relationships. My approach is effective for those who are motivated to engage in structured, evidence-based interventions such as CBT while also processing underlying emotional experiences.

Rachael is very helpful with offering solutions to a situation due to her background . Time flies when discussing my issues with her. So easy to talk to and get to the bottom of what can help better the future.
