Hi! I’m Rachel.

I’m a trauma-informed Associate Marriage and Family Therapist working with couples, teens, and adults. I offer in-person appointments from my office in Oakland, California, and telehealth services for clients statewide.

I am warm and curious, with a deep understanding of life’s complexities gathered from my lived experiences as a Black and Afro-Puerto Rican woman in the diaspora.
