Testimonials

“I knew within my first appointment that Rachel was going to be different.  Rachel scheduled my appointments once a week for 12 weeks. At the end of that session we re-evaluated together to decide if I needed to continue on with once a week, or drop down to every other week. Everyone else I had seen was once a month and we never seemed to get much accomplished. I had never had such aggressive, consistent treatment. I actually felt like I was accomplishing something for a change. I had gained a partner in my fight with my mental health. Rachel taught me how to change my negative self-talk and how to be kinder to myself by giving me tools and methods to use.  I am doing so much better at this time. I know that Rachel is there if I need her. She gained my trust, showed me empathy and gave me the tough love I needed. I thank her so much for impacting my life and changing it for the better.”
