Rachel Koontz, LCSW

Do you find yourself struggling to let go of behaviors that are damaging your relationships and self-worth? I am passionate about helping individuals who are struggling with substance use, relationship difficulties and trauma. I’m especially drawn to working with clients who feel emotionally overwhelmed, stuck in unhealthy patterns, or disconnected from themselves or others, yet are motivated to better understand what’s driving their challenges. My clients often want relief from symptoms, stronger and more fulfilling relationships, and a greater sense of stability and self-trust.

In our sessions, we'll focus on building insight while also developing practical, usable tools that translate into real-life change. We'll move at a pace that feels safe but purposeful, helping you better understand your patterns, strengthen emotional regulation, and build confidence in making decisions that align with your values. I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as well as Cognitive Behavioral approaches and trauma-informed techniques including EMDR.

Every person deserves a safe and nonjudgmental space to explore their inner world, gain insight, and develop the skills necessary to live a life they find meaningful. Seeking help is a courageous step, and I am here to provide the guidance and support you need along the way.
