Rachel Pires
Psychotherapist, Licensed Clinical Social Worker -
Hello! I’m Rachel. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Psychotherapist; but more importantly I am a human who feels truly honored to witness others in their humanness and journey. I believe we all require more accepting, less correcting – more good-enough, less perfectionism – and more self-compassion.
In my practice, I support individuals who want to find more acceptance, wholeness, and aliveness in their relationships. I work with individuals who feel smothered by self-criticism, doubt, sadness, anxiety, overwhelm, or fear, as well as individuals who are navigating what it means to show up as themselves in various areas of life. Through integrative practices, I support individuals in creating and enhancing more compassion for each other, find more capacity to really feel the hard stuff, and develop more understanding of how to manage the never ending stressors and challenges of life. And, I support individuals in finding and making more room for true presence, connection, and joy in their relationships. I serve not as an expert or someone with all the answers, but as a collaborative guide who values and deeply respects who my clients are and the wisdom they already have within.
