“My life wouldn’t be the same without Rachel. Her sensitivity and genuine sympathy coupled with a direct approach provide the opportunity to not only be heard, but feel safe diving into all aspects of my underlying struggles. Rachel’s guidance and support have made me a more stable person, prepared to face each day in a positive and productive way.”
“I have worked with Rachel for over 6 years. She has helped me through many stages of my life, as well as worked with me on finding healthy ways to process traumas from my past. Her calm demeanor and knowledge of current techniques is an extremely effective combination.”
“Throughout my years of working with Rachel, the ability to discuss and integrate my Christian faith has made a huge impact on working through traumas from my past, as well as current challenges. Rachel is easy to talk to and has really helped me develop tools to be able to process and grow past my anxieties and struggles related to abuse.”
“When I first started seeing Rachel I had not cried or been able to express emotions for 10 plus years. I was pretty convinced EMDR could not help me. Rachel did awesome creating a relationship of trust and safety with her kindness and honesty and accepted me just as I was. We started the EMDR process and delved into the trauma of the past and to my surprise I was able to cry; again, that was something I had not been able to do for years! I still have more work to do but I know with the support I have with Rachel this is a road I can walk and I know I’m not walking it alone.”
“Initially began seeing Rachel in order to fulfill a graduation requirement for my master’s degree program in counseling. The requirement was to have five sessions with a licensed counselor. After just a few sessions, it became obvious to me that I still had a lot of unresolved trauma from my time in the Army while serving in Iraq over 25 years ago. I couldn’t understand why, after so many years, I continued to experience physical and emotional responses when talking about that time in my life. Rachel helped me to process the feelings and emotions I often times felt when talking about my combat experiences. If you are considering counseling, I cannot say enough good things about her. Rachel has helped change my life and I am so grateful for her wisdom, guidance, compassion, and prayer during a really difficult time in my life. Thank you!!”
