Hello and welcome! My name is Rachel Cohen and I have been practicing social work for over 20 years. I counsel adults who are going through difficult life transitions and/or who are feeling anxious and depressed. By drawing on their own inner resources, my clients are empowered to face their challenges with confidence and strength.
I use a holistic and integrative approach, combining:
Internal Family Systems (IFS): to understand and heal the different parts of yourself
Motivational Interviewing: to explore and resolve ambivalence and enhance motivation for change
Strengths-Based Approach: to identify and build on your strengths and resilience
Psychodynamic Therapy: to explore the underlying causes of your symptoms and behaviors
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT): to develop coping skills and strategies for managing symptoms
Areas of Expertise
Anxiety management
Depression treatment
Grief and bereavement support
Adjustment to life changes (e.g., career transitions, relationship changes, health issues)
My warm personality creates a safe and non judgmental environment to talk about challenging emotions and situations and to collaborate in identifying and working towards your goals. I offer support by focusing and building on your strengths and resilience, and practical guidance to develop coping skills and strategies so that clients leave sessions with a sense of direction and confidence to address their unique challenges
If you're ready to take the first step towards healing and growth, I invite you to contact me. Let's work together to find peace, understanding, and a more fulfilling life.
