My approach to treating OCD is flexible, accepting, and holistic. My primary goal is for my members to have a full and valuable life, with as little interference from OCD as possible. It's important to have broader goals for therapy, in addition to reducing OCD symptoms. I want to know how your life would be better if your OCD were under control. What would it free you up to do or be? Change really is possible! I also specialize in treating trauma, anxiety, addiction, and depression.

Rachel has been incredibly dedicated and supportive throughout my work with NOCD. She shows up consistently, pays close attention, and genuinely cares about helping you move forward, not just get through the session. She has a calm, steady way of guiding the process that makes even very difficult moments feel manageable. She’s thoughtful, patient, and deeply knowledgeable, but what really stands out is how present she is. She also knows exactly when to use humor to take the edge off without minimizing what you are dealing with, which makes a huge difference on the hard days. Her approach has helped me understand my patterns more clearly and given me practical tools I actually use in real life. I’ve felt supported while also being appropriately challenged, and sometimes gently laughed out of my own mental loops, which has been genuinely helpful. I’m very grateful to be working with Rachel and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a therapist who is both compassionate, effective, and human.

Rachel is absolutely wonderful. You can tell she genuinely cares for her clients and wants to see them get better. She's not afraid to call you out on your b.s. and she has a fantastic sense of humor. Since starting sessions with her, I actually feel like I'm making progress in therapy and my mental health journey for the first time in YEARS.

Rachel has been so helpful these past few months. I have loved talking to her and she really has changed the quality of my life. I can take on life so much better after the tools she has taught me. I have never felt more comfortable talking with anyone else. Rachel is really great at what she does.
