Are you struggling with not feeling good enough? Smart enough? Doing enough?
You get messages from social media, family, and or yourself that you are not good enough (most of us are often our own worst critics!).
​
This leads you to feeling sad, frustrated, or disappointed with yourself. Your may feel anxious about what you need to do to feel good enough. You keep pushing harder and harder but still never feel good enough. You may experience symptoms of anxiety or depression about not being where you want to be.
You've come to the right place!
​
Therapy can help you to improve your relationship with yourself, find self-acceptance, and help you find a sense of fulfillment with your life.
​
Therapy can also help you to grow your self-esteem. Self-esteem is how we value and perceive ourselves. Oftentimes when we don't feel good enough, that inner critic is really hard on us and it is hard to feel good about ourselves. Therapy can help us learn to be kinder and more compassionate with ourselves.
Hi there! I'm Rachel.
I am passionate about helping people! I always knew that I wanted to work in a field where I was able to help others but was unsure how I wanted to do that until I discovered social work. I graduated from Dominican University with a Master of Social Work (MSW) degree in 2011 and obtained my Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in 2013. I have worked in many different areas of social work including community mental health, healthcare/renal, and child welfare. I have worked for group practices and have been providing telehealth services since March 2020. I have found telehealth to be an accessible and convenient way for people to engage in therapy. I am licensed in both IL (LCSW) and MI (LMSW-clinical). ​Some more fun facts about me...I enjoy traveling and connecting with new places and people. I am an RYT-200 and I love incorporating the mind-body=spirit connection in sessions. I am trained in Holy Fire Reiki at the Master level. I have a deep love for nature and try to spend as much time as I can outside as well as encourage others to experience the joy and healing effects of Mother Nature!
