Getting to know Rachel Pelissier

Hi there, I'm Rachel! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have over 20 years of experience working in the mental health field with children, adolescents, and adults. My approach to therapy is supportive, down-to-earth, and focused on creating a comfortable space where you can be yourself. My focus I work with adults/children who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, grief, or simply feeling overwhelmed by everyday life. I especially enjoy working with clients who want a supportive, nonjudgmental space where they can talk openly and feel understood. My approach I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients understand how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected. I believe therapy should feel like a conversation, and we will work together on the things that are most important to you. My communication style I believe therapy works best when it feels like a conversation rather than a clinical interview. We will work together to understand what you are experiencing, recognize patterns, and find practical strategies that can help you feel more confident and in control of your life. My journey to mental healthcare I have always been drawn to helping people and understanding what they are going through. Over the past 20 years, I have had the opportunity to work in many different areas of mental health, including behavioral health, psychiatric care, medical social work, child welfare, and school-based services. My goals for you I work with clients to identify goals that are meaningful and realistic for their lives. Together, we break larger concerns into smaller, manageable steps and regularly talk about what is working and what may need to change. Our first session Our first session is really about getting to know each other and helping you feel comfortable. We’ll talk about what brought you to therapy, what has been going on in your life, and what you would like to work on.
