Getting to know Dr. Rachael Berg-Martinez
I am a licensed clinical psychologist with advanced training in helping children, parents, and adults heal from trauma, navigate attachment wounds, and break cycles that keep them feeling stuck. My practice focuses on creating a warm, calm, and non-judgmental space where you can safely explore your story and make sense of the patterns that affect your relationships, mood, and daily life.
My specializations include:
Complex trauma and PTSD, especially for individuals who have experienced overwhelming or chronic stress
Attachment difficulties, childhood emotional neglect, and relationship struggles
Perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, birth and reproductive trauma, and the unique challenges of new parenthood
Adoption and foster care-related concerns for both parents and children
EMDR therapy for trauma processing, anxiety, and distressing memories
Psychological testing for autism and ADHD in adults and teens, with a focus on high-masking or late-diagnosed individuals
I blend evidence-based approaches—including EMDR, parts work, attachment-focused therapy, and psychodynamic insights—with a deep respect for your cultural identity, personal values, and lived experience. My goal is to help you build self-understanding, ease self-criticism, and grow more secure connections with yourself and the people you care about.
Therapy with me is collaborative and paced according to your readiness. I believe healing happens in relationship: feeling seen, understood, and supported can transform even long-standing pain. I welcome people from all backgrounds and aim to provide culturally responsive, LGBTQ+ affirming care.
Outside of therapy, I stay current with research on trauma recovery, neurodivergence, and parenting so I can offer care that is informed, compassionate, and practical. Whether you are seeking relief from anxiety, clarity about ADHD or autism, or support as you navigate parenting and family relationships, I am honored to support you.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Clients often describe my style as warm, collaborative, and deeply respectful. I believe that trust and safety are the foundation of meaningful therapy, especially when working with trauma, attachment wounds, or painful life transitions. I know it can be hard to share parts of your story that feel confusing, shameful, or overwhelming — so I move at your pace and never push you to open up before you’re ready.
My approach is integrative and tailored to each person or family. I draw from EMDR, attachment-focused therapy, parts work, and psychodynamic understanding to help you make sense of past experiences, soothe distressing emotions, and develop healthier patterns in your relationships and daily life. I often work with clients who appear “high-functioning” on the outside but feel stuck, disconnected, or exhausted underneath.
In our work together, I may gently point out patterns, invite curiosity about feelings and body signals, and offer tools to calm your nervous system when needed. For parents and families, I provide support that balances compassion for your child’s needs with strategies that strengthen connection and reduce conflict.
I see therapy as a partnership: you bring your lived experience and wisdom about yourself, and I bring my training, perspective, and genuine care. Together, we create a safe space where change can unfold at a pace that feels right for you.
