About me
Hi there and welcome to the first step of taking charge of your mental health. Congratulations!
My name is Rachel Garrett and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker for the state of Alabama. I graduated with my MSW from Troy University in 2016 and have worked with many different areas including Child Abuse and Neglect with DHR, juvenile delinquents, incarcerated adults, and inpatient Geri psych. I have worked with depression, anxiety, bipolar, schizophrenia, and compassion fatigue.
I tend to use mainly client centered therapy, CBT, and DBT and if you feel that I am the right fit for you, you and I will work together to navigate your life stressors and hopefully reach a blissful outcome. I promise to actively listen, treat you with kindness and respect, and fully empathize with you. I look forward to getting to know you and working with you!

Rachel is an amazing therapist who helps me understand my thoughts, feelings and emotions. Sometimes I don’t understand what I’m feeling but she seems to understand like a best friend would.

Rachel is absolutely amazing! She always listens to what I have to say instead of just hearing me. Rachel is spot on with resources to assist me with my life challenges. I am very thankful for her dedication and thoughtfulness.

Better help could not have picked a better fit for me. I love how my therapist always seems to understand where I’m coming from and tries to relate to every situation.
