About Rachel Wilson

About Me

I'm Rachel Wilson(she/her/hers), a psychotherapist, yoga therapist, and social justice activist committed to supporting people impacted by personal, systemic, and vicarious trauma to re-embody and reconnect.

I am passionate about providing a sanctuary for people to tell their stories, settle their nervous systems, and decolonize their minds.

Along with being trained as a psychotherapist, I integrate the wisdom I have gained from my yoga teachers, social justice activists, and social change makers into my client work.

My belief that we are all interconnected is the foundation for my work. When we heal individually, we will be better able to heal the collective.

Working with me.

If you chose to work with me, we would work collaboratively in weekly therapy sessions to build self-awareness by exploring stories and patterns in your life that are blocking you from living the life you want. These stories can come from our personal experiences and the messages we get from society about who we are supposed to be based on our gender, race, sexuality, ability level, and socioeconomic status. 

While I trust that you are the expert of your life, I am real with my clients around what I see coming up in terms of patterns and observations of what is happening in their lives and in our sessions to help to see where you can get out of your own way.

I also incorporate mindfulness and somatic practices in my work, so we may slow down the process and tap into emotions and bodily sensations arising in the moment. Some of my clients also love to incorporate mindful movement and breathwork into our sessions.

I love to laugh with my clients and find joy within the process of healing. 

The more self-awareness you build the better able you are to make mindful choices in your life to take control of your emotions and life. 

To get there, you need to take the first step. 

What does the process actually look like?

First we will have an initial free consultation video or phone call to see if we are a good fit. I will ask you questions to get a better understanding of why you decided to reach out for support, what you are currently struggling with, and identify some initial goals. And of course you get time to ask me any questions too!

During our first session, we will go deeper into what you are currently experiencing, as well as get some information about you and your life to better understand what is contributing to your current experiences. We will get really clear around what it is that you want to work on and finalize a treatment plan that will guide our work together.

You probably already know what may be contributing to what you are feeling, but together we can go deeper and get to the root of it.

We will work to create internal safety first. Then we can identify patterns and beliefs that may be blocking you from building the life you want, while also building your self-awareness to be able to identify what is happening in the moment to choose actions that will create healthier patterns and allow you to be in control of yourself.

Are you going to have to do work? Definitely.

Is it worth it? Absolutely, it is one of the best investments you can make in yourself.
