I am a Clinical Social Worker licensed in the state of Nevada. I have been in the field for over 5 years and work with individuals that experience a wide range of hardships including PTSD, depression, anxiety, and various forms of relationship issues. I also help many people who face physical and sexual trauma, emotional abuse, substance abuse, LGBTQ+ issues, and parental challenges.
As a social worker, I must focus on the whole person. I believe mental health is multi-dimensional and most events in our life shape our mental health. My strategy is to personalize dialog and treatment plans to meet your specific needs. I have experience using many modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Behavior Modification, and Psychotherapy. We will work together to explore which modalities and treatment approaches will help you achieve your personal goals.
I have gained many critical life experiences in fast food, manufacturing, and retail industries along with working as a preschool teacher and children’s caregiver. I believe that this helps me connect with people from various environments and backgrounds.
With work, family, school and everything else life throws at you, it is completely understandable that taking time for yourself can be challenging. The fact that you have taken steps to begin self-care is amazing and I look forward to guiding you through this rewarding journey!

Written on Jun 18, 2023 after therapy with Rachel for 1 year and 6 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, self esteem, and adhd
I went to 3 therapists before I found Rachel and she has, by far, been the best! She listens to my concerns and actually gives me tools to help with day to day life but never pushes me out of my comfort zone. She also never judges me which has always been an issue with my other therapists. 10/10 would recommend her!

She listens and offers great advice and coping mechanisms.

She is always so attentive and has helped me search and work through things from my past I didn’t even know I needed to work on! She has an amazing way of going with the flow of the session based on what’s on my mind

I feel so comfortable with Rachel. I wish she could be my therapist outside of my work EAP program!

It has been very comforting to have Rachel and be able to talk with her. She listens and responds better than I could have ever hoped for! Thank you Rachel!
