Rachel Manning

My communication style

I prioritize clear, open communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences with me as an empathetic partner. If we're working through something challenging, you can expect me to be calm and patient, but also honest.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey into therapy began when peers came to me with their problems. I was interested in learning about the human mind and behavior and had a deep curiosity about human resilience. I worked with survivors of trauma, children and teens in foster care, and later with individuals and couples.

My goals for you

Therapy is a partnership. Together, we'll identify and set goals that matter to you, whether they focus on improving relationships, developing coping skills, or another personal objective. As we work together, your goals may evolve as you gain new insights. I'm here to provide the support and tools you need to move closer to where you want to be.

Our first session

Our first session will be an opportunity for us to get to know one another. We'll discuss your background and what brings you to therapy. It's completely normal to feel nervous about your first appointment. We'll take it one step at a time, and I'm here to guide you through each step of the process.
