Rachel Aylsworth

My communication style

I believe in the importance of open and clear communication. I offer a warm and relatable tone to create a space of comfortability, safety, and trust. Your story is important to me, and I will listen with non-judgmental ears and an open, patient heart. I will hold all that you express with gentleness and kindness.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey began as a dancer, experiencing the restorative power of movement and expressive arts to heal inner wounds and create healing rituals. Working with children exposed to trauma, I learned how powerful healing can be when we nurture our capacity for imagination and play. This sense of wonder and curiosity continues to inspire me.

My goals for you

I believe that healing is attainable through a nurturing therapeutic relationship, and I have deep respect for you as you work to live a life you’re proud of. Together, we will create short-term and long-term goals that may shift and evolve as you learn and grow through new insights and self-knowledge. We will work at your pace and comfort level.

Our first session

Our first session is about getting to know each other and co-creating therapeutic goals that feel attainable and inspiring. I will open the space for any questions or hesitant thoughts you may have, and offer reassurance and encouragement throughout. I welcome any feedback, thoughts, pushback, and celebrations of your growth.
