About

Hello and welcome!
My name is Rachel and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC-MHSP). I was trained at Richmont Graduate University in Chattanooga, TN and specialized in Trauma and Sex Therapy.

Helping individuals to heal from their pasts and grow into the best version of themselves is something I truly love. Today, we know that trauma settles into our brains and bodies in ways that time cannot fully heal (despite the old adage, “time heals everything”) but there is hope. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is considered by many to be one of the best treatments for trauma and is my preferred methodology in helping individuals to get “unstuck”. I also align with psychodynamic and existential therapies. Although I decided not to pursue couples’ sex therapy after school, my training has better equipped me in helping individuals move forward in their work towards holistic, embodied healing.

I have been a part of the counseling world for 7 hears now, and in this time, I have worked in hospital settings, a University and in most recent years, private practice.

It’s important to note that complex trauma is something we have all experienced to some degree. Please do not allow comparisons to hold you back from your healing- your story and desire for help are valid.

If you feel like we could be a good fit, I would love to talk with you.
