Hi, I’m Rachel
Reaching out for help can be tough. It’s awesome that you are taking this step, and I applaud you for that! Thank you for your interest– I encourage you to find a therapist that you feel comfortable with.
I have always been passionate about helping others. Through a non-judgmental, calm and patient style, I will get to know you and your goals for therapy. We will build a trusting and collaborative working relationship that will be the foundation to help you increase the insight and awareness that is necessary for change.
You are unique, and your sessions will be too. As I guide you through skills and possible solutions, I encourage honest feedback on what may or may not be working for you. I believe in genuineness and transparency, and through this openness we will explore ways to meet your goals.
Approach
I am action-orientated and find it useful for my clients to participate in assignments both outside of and within our sessions. This is important so that we can test what works, and measure results.
Since everyone is unique, I practice Integrative Therapy, which uses various techniques from different modalities. Based on a person’s needs, I may pull from types of therapies like:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
- Dialectical Behavioral Therapy
- Motivational Interviewing
- Solution-Focused Therapy
