Not all who wander are lost
Hello! I'm Rachel (She/Her) and I am an Associate Clinical Social Worker. I'm a firm believer that nature can heal, but also having someone to talk and process things with can be just as important. Whether it be grief, life change, anxiety, depression, burn out or pondering purpose, I'd love to go on the journey with you.
I love working with...
...people who are seeking to get in touch, or back in touch, with themselves.
...people I love working with: pet lovers, artists, people who ponder, and outdoor enthusiasts.
Some of my favorite approaches include...
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) (mixed with some mindfulness)
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
finding creative or active outlets
How I help...
Whether you have a specific goal or are just thinking what change there could be, I am available to be a brainstormer and advocate. I'm wanting to walk the journey with you to find what is best suited for you and your life.
I believe...
...Everybody has the ability to create a life they're proud of.
What it's like in session with me
Generally I like to have a short term and long term aspect of therapy sessions: how the week was and diving into the long term goals and processing. I often find that the long term and short term aspects are linked and it lets us explore together.
Throughout our time together we work together to foster emotional awareness, mindfulness and coping/grounding skills, identifying strengths (because we can be our own worst critic) finding outlets as well as fostering the knowledge of capability.
