About me
Hi, I’m Rachel! I can’t wait to support you on your journey
After years of struggling with anxiety, I decided to take control of my life and heal my body from the inside out.
Growing up I was a competitive athlete, and I loved it! It happened to also be a place where most of my anxiety stemmed from. Getting the scholarship, winning the game, deciding what to “do next”. Most of the time I felt like I couldn’t breathe and like there was a ton of pressure on me physically.
In 2016, after losing my father to cancer, my anxiety peaked. Understandably so. I started to look for other methods that might be more supportive and spiritual than traditional therapy. Meditation, yoga, and therapy helped but I wanted to try something new.
That’s when I found a somatic coach and felt a deep shift. I understood my anxiety in a whole new way, and knew I needed to bring this work to the world!
Today, I love to support clients with breathwork, somatic embodiment practices, and inner child healing. I know the struggle that anxiety can bring, and I also know it’s possible to overcome!
