LICENSED MARRIAGE AND FAMILY THERAPIST

Rachael is a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist who works with children, teens, adults and couples navigating a variety of emotional, relational and transitional challenges. Prior to joining Serene Pathways, she worked at a nonprofit organization supporting individuals experiencing domestic violence, where she developed a strong foundation in trauma-informed care.

Rachael has experience working with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, impulsivity, PTSD, trauma, relationship dysfunction, communication issues, familial conflict and other various life stressors. She approaches therapy from an attachment-based and compassionate perspective, helping clients better understand themselves, their emotions and patterns within relationships.

Rachael integrates EMDR (Eye-movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), mindfulness practices, somatic approaches, and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help client process trauma, release built-up emotions, and develop the ability to be more vulnerable and connected with themselves and others. Her goal is to help clients move out of feeling stuck, heal from painful experiences, and evolve into healthier versions of themselves that can make more intentional and fulfilling choices.
