Rachel believes that every human being is an important part of the web of life. Rachel recognizes that during the lifespan various experiences (inside of us, outside of us, between us) can disrupt the felt sense of our inherent value and belonging to this web, leading to suffering and disconnection. Rachel works collaboratively with clients in exploring their internal landscape with compassion and curiosity, observing and building spaciousness around stuck patterns and fear-based behaviors, and tending to emotional wounds. Rachel has experience working with depression, anxiety, BPD, trauma, addiction, anger, impulsivity, grief, life transitions, non-monogamy and non-traditional family structures. Rachel identifies as queer and enjoys working with other LGBTQ+ identified folks. Rachel’s approach to therapy draws from a variety of approaches and modalities including IFS (Rachel is Level 1 trained), EMDR (Rachel is level 1 trained), mindfulness, focusing, CBT, DBT and harm reduction psychotherapy for substance use disorders.
