Values

Change:

Change is a guarantee in life. It can be scary, invigorating, and everything in between. I hold change as a value because it is something we all need to learn to accept, adapt to, and grow with. It is an integral part of this work.


Trust:

Trust is at the core of any healthy relationship, including the relationship you have with your therapist. We’ll work to build a safe and caring relationship where you can find healing and greater life satisfaction.


Authenticity:

You are the expert on yourself. Therapy is a judgment-free space where you get to discover what living an authentic life means to you.


Acceptance:

My motto is accept more, resist less. I accept people wherever they are in life when they show up to my door, and guide them to learn how to better accept themselves and their circumstances. Acceptance is so much more than a value. It is also a skill, a guiding principle, and a way of relating to others.

Testimonials

"Doing therapy remotely made it convenient for our whole family to participate as well as made it a very comfortable environment for our daughter who was attending therapy for the first time. Rachael was essential in giving our family a common language and tools to deal with big feelings."

Family therapy client, 2021

"We saw immediate changes in both our parenting behavior and our child's behavior. Rachael was thoughtful, understanding and worked with us on all our specific needs."

Parent coaching client, 2021

"Rachael is the best. Really great listener and very understanding. Makes me feel very comfortable to open up to her which is important to me because I usually have a really hard time sharing my feelings and she is very receptive to them."

Adult client, 2023

"Since, I've been meeting with Rachael for parent guidance, hoping to learn how to better help my girl cope. I'm happy to report, we've seen so many positive changes over the last 8 months. Rachael has patiently listened to my distress, reframed my thinking and my daughter's struggles much more helpfully, and despite never having met my daughter, understands her and can therefore teach me the skills I need. Rachael's influence is constant. It has changed how we understand our daughter and her worries, changed our parenting techniques- especially how we handle unwanted behavior, and how we react and encourage her during the most difficult moments. I am very grateful for stumbling upon Rachael- she's calm, never judges, patient, firm, and has a wealth of knowledge and expertise to share."

Parent client, 2022-2023
