Great to meet you!

Therapy that feels like a conversation — with tools that actually help. 🤍

Hi, I’m Rachel! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York with five years of experience providing therapy to teens and adults.

If you’re dealing with anxiety, overthinking everything, feeling stuck, navigating relationships, going through a big life change, or just feeling like life has been a lot lately — you’re in the right place.

My approach to therapy

My style is warm, laid-back, and supportive. Therapy with me isn’t about sitting in awkward silence or being told to “just think positive.” It’s a space to talk things through, understand yourself a little better, and learn practical, evidence-based tools you can actually use outside of our sessions. We might unpack patterns from the past, work through what’s happening right now, or figure out how to handle whatever comes next.

What you can expect from me

There’s no one-size-fits-all version of therapy, so we’ll focus on what makes sense for you and the goals that matter most to you.

Come as you are. You don’t need to have the right words, know exactly what you want to work on, or have everything figured out.
