Founder & Therapist

Hi, I’m Rachael, founder and therapist at Radiant Counseling & Wellness Collective. I believe that healing begins in a space where you feel heard, seen, supported, and safe. With over 14 years of experience as a social worker, I’ve had the honor of working with diverse populations in a variety of settings. I approach my clients with a realistic, empathetic, and compassionate style, and I believe in the power of humor as a tool for connection and resilience. It would be my honor to walk alongside you on your journey.

My therapeutic style is realistic, empathetic, and collaborative, ensuring we work together as a team to support your journey. I draw on a variety of evidence-based approaches to create a personalized plan that fits your unique needs and goals.

Types of therapy

  • We will focus on your present and future circumstances and goals rather than on past experiences. It’s an empowering approach that helps you build on your existing strengths and find practical solutions.

  • This approach helps you understand how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected. We’ll work on identifying unhelpful patterns and developing practical, healthy coping skills to navigate life's challenges.

  • Often used for managing intense emotions, DBT provides concrete skills in four key areas: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. It's about finding a balance between acceptance and change.

  • This style focuses on increasing your self-awareness and understanding of the "here and now." We will explore how your environment and relationships influence you, helping you gain new insights and take responsibility for your choices.

  • If you feel stuck or unsure about making a change, this collaborative approach can help. We'll explore your motivations and build a clear path forward that feels authentic and empowering to you.

  • This approach provides a warm, collaborative space to help parents develop effective strategies to navigate challenging behaviors, improve communication, and build a stronger, more connected relationship with their children.

  • Rather than focusing on what's "wrong," this approach highlights your existing strengths, wisdom, and resilience. I see you as the expert on your own life, and my role is to help you tap into your inner resources to create the changes you want.

  • This means I recognize and understand the widespread impact of trauma. The work we do together will be grounded in safety, trust, and empowerment, always honoring your experience and respecting your pace.
