My Approach to Helping
Hello and welcome. My name is Rachel and I am a therapist practicing RO-DBT and ERP. This means I work with those facing symptoms of OCD, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, academic concerns, loneliness, and low confidence. I have been a therapist for 2 years and previously I was a high school counselor. I love working with young adults and teens who are ready and motivated for change. If this is your first time trying therapy, I imagine it can be a little daunting. Thats why I like to provide a free 15 minute consult so you can ask as many questions as you need in order to feel more comfortable. For those making a return to therapy, welcome back. Change is challenging and at times we can all use a little help no matter the stage of life.
As your therapist I will work hard to create a judgement free space holding you and your care with the highest regard. I tend to be a playful therapist and find that when the situation calls for it, humor and laughter can be a great tool for regulating.
Feel free to reach out so we can learn more about each other and then get to work! Looking forward to connecting!
