Getting to know Rachel Zajicek

Hi there! I'm Dr. Rachel Zajicek, an Illinois-based licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with over 15 years of direct practice experience across various outpatient medical and mental health contexts. I earned my Doctor of Social Work from Aurora University, which has deepened my commitment to providing compassionate, evidence-based care. Over the past 7 years, I've worked with diverse individuals and couples in private practice. My aim is always to create a relaxed, judgment-free space for my clients to explore and address their stressors and concerns at their comfort pace. By normalizing your human experiences-like sudden overwhelming emotions, persistent stressors, and other life challenges that may upset your day-I guide you toward mental wellbeing, whether you are an adolescent or navigating your retirement years. In my sessions, I adopt a humanistic and relational approach to therapy. The sessions are entirely client-centered, beginning with a quick check-in and culminating with planning for further follow-up based on the issues brought up during the session. I also consider your relationships with yourself and others as essential aspects impacting your overall wellbeing. My journey into psychotherapy began after dedicating over 5 years to hospice and palliative care. Although end-of-life care remains dear to me, the longing for more long-term interactions with clients expanded my focus beyond just addressing end-of-life-related stressors. Apart from work, I'm a self-confessed nerd, married to my beloved husband, and a pet parent to two charming cats and an adorable pitbull mix dressed in sweaters.
