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 (many 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 trying harder and harder. You are constantly pushing yourself to do better/be better/do more but 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 help you to improve your self-esteem. Self-esteem is how we values and perceive ourselves. Oftentimes when we don't feel good enough, we view ourselves negatively and speak negatively to 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 what that was 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 this platform 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 completed a 200 hour yoga teacher training and I am very interested in the mind-body connection. 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!
