As a certified sex therapist, Rachel brings specialized training to conversations that are often hard to start elsewhere. She creates a nonjudgmental space for clients to talk openly about sexual health and relationships.

She helps clients make sense of sensory overwhelm, social exhaustion, and the unique challenges of navigating relationships and everyday life when they experience the world more intensely than most. Rachel’s goal is to help clients build genuine confidence and connection, learning to trust how they're wired rather than constantly fighting against it.      Rachel offers both in-office and outdoor walk-and-talk sessions in Cumming, GA, as well as online sessions for residents of Georgia, South Carolina, and Florida.     Rachel makes therapy convenient and easy to fit into a busy life. Clients appreciate her humor, straightforward yet adaptable approach, and ability to meet them where they are to partner with them to work on their goals.
