More about Rachel
Rachel has been working in the mental health field for the last ten years with compassion, dynamics, and empathy to ensure that all of her clients reach their own degree of success.

It all started with an internship started at Jewish Family and Children's Services working with Geriatric Socialization and Bereavement Groups, as well as doing in-home therapy for Holocaust survivors while receiving her Master's in Community Counseling at Georgian Court University.
