Rachel Knauss

ASSOCIATE CLINICAL SOCIAL WORKER

Are you struggling to find meaning in your life? Do you find yourself consumed by worry, anxiety, sadness or self doubt? I know what it is like to feel that you can't change the voice in your head or your emotional responses to the stressors in your life.

I have a deep appreciation for the complexities of individual experiences, and a passion for helping you navigate your specific challenges. I am dedicated to providing you with a safe and supportive space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, experiences, and concerns. 

Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, major transitions, or any other concerns, I'm here to listen without judgment. I will work with you to help you find insight, coping strategies, and inner resilience.  

Together, we can forge a path toward healing and personal growth by setting meaningful goals, working to overcome challenges, and eventually embracing the inevitable transitions of life. Your well-being is my priority, and I am committed to walking beside you on your journey toward a healthier, balanced and more fulfilling life. I look forward to meeting you soon.
