Rachel works with adults (18+) in individual therapy. She has a particular interest in working with themes of emotional resilience and coping after adverse/traumatic events. Rachel has received basic training in EMDR and is currently in a Somatic Experiencing (SE) training program. She came into the field of psychotherapy from a practice of yoga and an interest in other energy healing modalities.

Rachel is originally from Minnesota but received her graduate degree and initial training as a counselor in Washington State. She graduated from Bastyr University in WA, whose counseling program focused on a mindfulness-based approach to psychotherapy. Before starting at LLPW, Rachel worked in community mental health settings, focusing on crisis stabilization and support.

Rachel is drawn to themes of emotional resilience and recovery, believing there is always a path for healing even in the most difficult times. She also enjoys working with individuals who identify as a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) or who experience emotional sensitivities. Rachel has received basic training in EMDR and is currently in a Somatic Experiencing (SE) training program. She uses these modalities to allow for a gentle, yet effective therapeutic experience. Rachel very much looks forward to working with you.
