Getting to know Rachel Hood

I’m a therapist who works with adults and teens navigating trauma, anxiety, life transitions, and the lasting effects of difficult relationships and systems. I have experience supporting clients whose experiences include foster care, adoption, mental health and medical care, and other institutional settings. My clinical background also includes working with clients managing suicide risk and complex developmental trauma.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I believe that the wisdom and capacity for healing already exist within you. My approach is trauma-informed, relational, and strengths-based, drawing from DBT, CBT, and somatic awareness. Together, we can create a space where you feel safe to reconnect with your own voice, choices, and sense of self. I welcome every part of who you are, including the parts that may have been hidden, silenced, or shaped by experiences of survival.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I received my Master of Social Work from the University of Michigan and practice in New York. My hope is to provide a supportive, compassionate space where you can feel understood, build on your strengths, and move toward greater self-trust and meaningful change.
