About

Hi, I'm Rachel: a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, 200-hour certified yoga teacher and owner/therapist of Pond of Peace Counseling and Wellness. I work with adults navigating the ups and downs of life. Whether you're carrying the weight of past experiences or simply feeling overwhelmed by the day-to-day, you don’t have to go it alone. In therapy, I create a warm, down-to-earth space where humor is welcome, emotions are honored, and practical tools are always available. I integrate a variety of evidence-based approaches, including CBT, mindfulness, IFS-informed work, DBT skills, and problem-solving therapy.

I have a special heart for working with veterans and first responders. I understand the unique challenges that come with serving others and holding difficult experiences, with various close loved ones in these fields.
