Rachel Watson

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Accepting clients Last Updated 5 days ago

Beginning therapy can be a challenge, and finding a therapist who is the right fit for you may be an additional challenge. As a Psychotherapist, I specialize in management of Trauma/PTSD, Relationship Issues, Anxiety, Life Transitions, Depression and Personality Disorders.

I use a person-centered approach to best serve each of my clients. My role is to be both a "coach" and supporter, who will help you progress from post-traumatic stress to post-traumatic growth. I can assist you with providing new coping skills, and help you to increase insight into the issues you may be facing.

I believe that the best therapy outcomes result from building a strong connection, setting goals, and working together as a collaborative team. If you are wanting to modify unhelpful patterns and behaviors, increase ability to reflect, or process a difficult event in your life, I am here to provide you with a safe listening space, and help you with provision of constructive feedback and support.
