Rachel received her bachelor's degree from Utah Valley University in Family Science and her master's degree from Texas Tech University in Couples and Family Therapy. Through her education, Rachel has had experience working with diverse individuals with diverse problems.
Being a safe place for sexual, gender, and racial minorities is very important to her. Rachel has received training and is proficient in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), has extensive training in Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Gottman Couples Therapy, and Experiential Family Therapy. Rachel is fluent in Spanish and cherishes
opportunities to work with Spanish-speaking patients in the therapy room.
Rachel is passionate in her collaborative work with individuals, couples, and families striving toward their therapeutic goals. Rachel believes in the importance of forming genuine connections with patients, creating safe spaces to feel understood and accepted, and challenging her patients to get uncomfortable in order to facilitate growth.
When she isn't at work, Rachel is probably napping or finishing a new TV show. Once she has her energy back, Rachel loves to laugh with her friends until tears come out her eyes, go camping and white water rafting with her cute family, and anything that has to do with music. Living in Texas has even turned her on to country music (just a little bit!) Rachel loves the color blue, making adventure videos, and hopes to one day do a TedTalk.
