More about Rachel Stanton, LICSW

I provide EMDR and sensorimotor psychotherapy for people who have experienced trauma in Boston. I am a warm, sometimes funny, sometimes sarcastic, always gentle therapist who is really, really, really passionate about helping you heal after sexual assault and other bad things. Because of how the body holds traumatic memory I work a lot with thoughts, emotions, AND the body to help you get better. This can look like: increasing your awareness of how your body can help you during triggering times experimenting with the role of movement, body postures, words, proximity, or touch in your healing journey playing around with ways to help you stay in the present moment through noticing sensations, words, or feelings being curious about the different stories your thoughts, emotions, or body have to tell about your experiences in life. I have a Masters in Social Work from Boston College and am licensed to practice psychotherapy in Massachusetts. I supervise other therapists who are learning how to do trauma therapy. I am trained in Progressive Counting, EMDR, and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (Level 2). I stay active in the trauma & dissociation professional groups and am always learning new things! After traumatic things happen we can develop beliefs about ourselves that aren’t true, but you can’t help but feel that way; things like: “there’s something wrong with me” “I’m not good enough” “I’m not safe” “I’m broken” It is also normal to have difficulty trusting others, being intimate, or feeling safe even when nothing bad is happening right now. Sometimes people even develop symptoms of PTSD like always feeling on edge, having nightmares, uncontrollable anxiety or panic, or feeling disconnected from themselves, the world, or others. As your therapist, I will join you on your journey through healing and growth - you will not be alone.
