Rachel Katznelson

Therapist

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Arizona, specializing in trauma, attachment, substance use, and psychedelic integration. I hold a Master’s in Clinical Psychology and am currently completing my PhD in Transpersonal Psychology, where my research focuses on inner healing intelligence, somatic integration, and transformation through altered states of consciousness.

My approach is both grounded and deeply experiential. I integrate somatic therapy, parts work, mindfulness, and attachment-focused interventions to help clients move beyond insight and into real, embodied change. I believe that healing doesn’t come from fixing what’s “wrong,” but from reconnecting with the innate intelligence within you that already knows how to heal.

I work well with clients who feel stuck in patterns they can’t think their way out of—whether that’s anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, or cycles of substance use. Many of my clients are high-functioning but internally overwhelmed, disconnected, or carrying unresolved emotional pain. Together, we create a space that is honest, supportive, and sometimes challenging—in the service of real growth.

I also specialize in integration work for individuals exploring or recovering from psychedelic experiences. I help clients make meaning of these experiences and translate insights into sustainable, grounded change in their daily lives.

In our work together, you can expect a balance of compassion and accountability. I’ll meet you where you are, but I’ll also help you move forward. My goal is to support you in building a life that feels aligned, regulated, and genuinely yours—not just one that looks okay on the outside.

You don't have to navigate this alone.

If you're struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, or stress, you've already taken the first step by searching for help. I'm here to make the next step easy.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with 11 years of experience helping adults break free from patterns that no longer serve them. My primary modality is EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) an evidence based therapy proven to help the brain process and heal from traumatic experiences, even when traditional talk therapy hasn't worked.

Welcome, I am Amanda! You don’t have to wait for a crisis to want something to change. Therapy can be a space to reconnect with yourself, get clarity, and actually feel better, not just survive the day.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with over a decade of experience helping people untangle the stress, self-doubt, and the "what now?" moments that come with being human. Whether you're overwhelmed, burnt out, stuck in your own head, or going through a major life shift, you don’t have to figure it out alone.

You have been managing. Getting through the days, handling what comes at you, keeping it together. But somewhere along the way, that started to feel like the ceiling instead of the floor. I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and the kind of stress that stops feeling temporary. I also work with LGBTQIA+ and transgender individuals, and with people facing major life transitions who are ready for something to genuinely shift. My approach is practical and grounded. I am here to help you get unstuck and move forward with more confidence than you walked in with.
