In moments of great stress, opportunities for profound change emerge. If you're finding life overwhelmingly difficult, struggling to "get over things," you're not alone. The truth is, navigating life's challenges often requires more than we can muster on our own. As a mental health care professional with over two decades of experience, I've supported countless individuals in understanding that crucial human connections and professional guidance can illuminate the path to healing and self-discovery.

Establishing therapeutic alliance with my clients is the foundation of my psychotherapy work. I am a strong advocate for cultural competency, and also believe that clients, although experiencing some challenges, are experts in their own lives and are seeking some support and guidance through therapy. Furthermore, I support my clients in exploring issues such as emotional difficulties, stress, relationship difficulties, parenting, self-esteem, and family conflict. I believe in working collaboratively with my clients to explore solutions and coping strategies to overcome these barriers.

Then, you are not alone, and you have come to the right place. My approach to care is collaborative, person-centered, trauma-informed, strength-based and culturally sensitive.

Are you feeling stuck and having a hard time seeing your way forward? A change in your life can leave you feeling hopeless, empty, confused, or lost. Finding yourself in a new role, or a new phase of life (being a student, living on your own for the first time, finding yourself as a caregiver), ending a relationship, or loosing a loved one, may throw you on a path that you didn’t expect and have a hard time navigating. Right now, you can't see your way forward, but you want to find a way through the weeds so you don't feel so bogged down and overwhelmed.

Is your chronic illness holding you back? Please know that you are worthy of living a fulfilling life. You are so much more than your illness. It can be challenging to carry on day to day. People around you may not understand just how much planning it takes to simply function when you are constantly low on energy, or how much effort you put in every single day to show up for yourself and others in spite of the pain. I see you, and I am here for you.

Racing heart, shaking hands, breathlessness, and an urgent sense of imminent danger are some of the signs of anxiety. Some people have heart palpitations or flutters, prickling sensations, choking sensations, dizziness or nausea. It's important to rule out medical factors, but if a doctor has told you that your symptoms are being caused by stress or anxiety, know that this is a highly treatable condition and it doesn't mean you're weak or crazy. In fact, feeling like you're losing your mind and having difficulty focusing are features of extreme anxiety! We can address this.

Are you perpetually in fight or flight or shut down mode? Do your emotions feel out of control? Easily triggered? I'm Rachelle and I’m the face behind OPS, an online therapy practice. I specialize in nervous system stabilization. I work with those who have experienced trauma to process its emotional and the physical effects. My practice incorporates a focus on the mind-body connection, which most clients say was the missing piece in previous therapy. The body goes through just as much as the mind; effective therapy involves paying close attention to the body and developing nervous system resiliency.
