Why Rachelle?
I'm obsessed with helping teen girls and young women break free from depression, low self-esteem, and feeling stuck.
I have a knack for getting them to actually open up and get to the root of what's going on.
This isn't cold, clinical therapy like you see on TV.
This is therapy specifically designed for teens and young women who want a space that feels real, human, and actually helpful.
I'm human first and a therapist second. I'll be right there with her- through the tears, the laughs, and all of the hard-to-name feelings in between.
I know what it's like to struggle with anxiety and depression, and I also know what it's like to come out on the other side and feel the clouds start to part.
To what you want-
You wake up and she's already getting ready for the day before you've even had your coffee.
She walks out the door with a little bit of pep in her step- at least as much as a teenager can have.
After school she actually tells you a little about her day, she went to softball practice and says she had a good time.
Something has shifted.
Those zero-to-one-hundred emotional spirals aren't taking over every day anymore.
You feel relief, and it seems like she does, too.
She seems more like her true self again. That heavy darkness feels like it's finally starting to melt.
I have 20 years of experience working with children, teens and their families; especially during times of crisis.
