Rachel came to the Chicago land area from Ohio to attend graduate school at Northwestern University. After she completed her Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology, she worked in hospital inpatient units then transitioned to outpatient centers providing PHP and IOP level of care. She enjoyed learning about the range of mental illnesses and has settled in private practice with a focus on perinatal care. She enjoys helping parents navigate changing identities through stages of parenthood, including helping clients who want to become parents but haven’t been able to yet. Her specialties include anxiety, depression, and adjustment disorders.
Effective February 2, 2026, Authentic Growth Wellness Group will transition to Private Pay and remain in-network only with BCBS PPO & BlueChoice PPO plans. We’ll no longer be in-network with Aetna, Cigna, or UnitedHealthcare.
This change helps us continue offering high-quality, accessible, and sustainable care for our clients and clinicians.
