LCSW, CST, PMH-C
Accepting Clients

Welcome, I’m Rachel (she/her). I want to create the space for you to heal and grow into your authentic self.

Social Worker in Chicago, IL

About My Clients

Folks who see me tend to work towards healing from past trauma, sexual dysfunction, navigating fertility and parenthood, and anxiety. My specialties include sex therapy, trauma recovery, perinatal mental health, anxiety, phobias, and relationships.

My Background and Approach

My therapeutic approach is holistic, relational, and informed by feminist and queer theory. I understand that every facet of our lives, from our physical health to sociopolitical events, impacts who and how we are in the world. I take into account the impact of systemic forces, such as oppression, both on your life and on our therapeutic relationship. Having a strong, trusting relationship with each other is one of the most important factors in therapeutic success, so you will often hear me asking for feedback and encouraging conversations on how we are both showing up in this work together.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

You are the expert of yourself. We are all complex beings with the capacity for change. Everyone is worthy of love, safety, and compassion. Life takes a village.
