In our first session, we will get to know one another. We will discuss your background and how you reached your decision of taking the step towards being a better version of yourself. We will work together to set up goals that you would like to accomplish within the first three months. Next, the client can discuss any additional areas that they would like to focus on for their treatment.
Rachel's areas of strength are trauma focused, anxiety, anger management, and depression. Life has already beaten us down to the point that it is necessary to have an increased positive outlook on life. Rachel loves implementing positive therapy for clients to have a different perspective on life.
I love working with clients that want to put in the work outside of therapy. Therapy is not easy, but as long as the common denominator is consistency then the mindset will be able to focus on the positivity. I believe in working together with my clients towards the goals set in the first session.
