Great to meet you!

I am an LICSW who works with adults on:

-Fertility and family planning challenges

-Miscarriage and pregnancy loss

-Postpartum anxiety and depression

-Relationships and boundaries with others around family planning and parenting

-Grief and loss

-Divorce and unexpected identity changes

-Control and perfectionism around self-expectations

-Vaginismus and sexual pleasure

-Interpersonal violence, including emotional and psychological boundaries

If so, I'd love to work with you.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I have a warm, supportive, and eclectic approach to my therapeutic work with clients. I completed a training in Women's Mental Health at Atrius Health with a focus on postpartum anxiety and depression. I utilize self-compassionate work, cognitive-based-therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), among many other dynamics.

What you can expect from our first session

You can walk away expecting to feel supported and energized with specific strategies to help you continue to heal and work towards your goals.

You will feel empowered by the skills that you already have that we have discovered and identified together.

Also, hopefully we will have laughed!

Rachel's style is
