Getting to know Rachel Kardon
It takes courage to come to therapy, and the most important part of being a clinician is the therapeutic relationship I develop with my clients. I provide a safe space with a genuine and empathic approach to help you feel supported, empowered, and authentically self-connected.
My approach is holistic, with a focus on Psychodynamic Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. I hold an EdS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Loyola University Chicago. Throughout my career, I have worked in private practice, psychiatric hospital settings, and community-based mental health organizations, providing individual, group, and family therapy to children, adolescents, and adults. I specialize in working with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, relationship distress, stress management, family conflict, life transitions, identity exploration, grief, trauma, and loss.
Therapy is a collaborative process, and I will support you as we explore your journey together. My goal for you is to become the expert of your life and recognize the strengths and qualities that make you unique.

This was my first time going to therapy and I felt uneasy about my first session. Rachel calmed me down from the moment we started session and made me feel very supported and comfortable. I ended up scheduling weekly sessions with her moving forward and can’t believe I was so nervous to try therapy!

Rachel is absolutely incredible at what she does. She has provided me so much support during our time together and has helped me develop a set of tools to manage my mental health challenges that feel accessible. Her demeanor is so warm and I find her approach to be very nurturing while still honest. I always leave our sessions feeling so relieved and heard. I feel so lucky to have found her and cannot say enough good things.
