testimonials

It’s an honor to walk alongside my clients and witness the healing and growth that unfolds over time. Many people come to somatic therapy in San Luis Obispo feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or disconnected—and begin to feel more grounded, connected, and like themselves again.

The reflections shared here offer a glimpse into that process. They are shared with permission, and all identifying details have been changed to protect confidentiality.

Rachel has been my therapist for about 4 years now. I honestly feel incredibly lucky to have such a trustworthy, insightful, empathetic, warm, and validating therapist. She has helped me tremendously navigating life’s ups and downs and I cannot recommend her enough.

Rachel is an excellent Therapist. She's been an important influence on helping me talk through personal issues. Familiar with different types of approaches(CBT, DBT, etc). She's extremely knowledgeable and can knows resources that will be relevant to you and your perspective. Compassionate and strong. I can't recommend her enough. She's great via remote sessions, and her office is downtown and has free parking.

I owe so much to Rachel. She has helped me through a really important time in my life, and I don’t think I would still have my family in my life without her support.

She is compassionate and she never judges me. I always feel heard and understood. She has given me tools that actually helped me to make real changes in my life and how to get through conflict.

I truly feel she is a therapist that cares and is incredibly skilled, I am so happy that I have met her and have her to get me through some difficult times in my life. I highly recommend her. She has helped me become a better person and change my life for the better.

"My son has benefited from play-based therapy with Rachel for the last 3 years. While he normally complains during times of transition from one activity to the next, he never does with going to his therapy sessions. He thoroughly enjoys and looks forward to his time there. We have seen so much progress with him in the last few years, from learning to name emotions to managing big feelings in the moment. We have so appreciated having Rachel in his life and look forward to him continuing that relationship as he gets into his tween and teen years. Further, she has been great on the parent side of things (communication, providing superbills for insurance, scheduling, etc).  I would recommend Rachel to anyone who is looking for therapy for their child."

I’ve been to three therapists and she was the one that helped me the most! Rachel is so smart and an amazing human. I would recommend her to anyone I know!

Rachel was extremely helpful to me during some of the hardest times of my life I used her for 3 years and the help and insight she provided me was priceless. I would recommend her to anyone
