Rachel's superpower is empathic relating, compassionately guiding us to our blind spots, and empowering individuals to reclaim their inherent wisdom. Fascinated by Jungian and decolonial depth psychology, as well as existential and humanistic theories, she believes the mind, body, and spirit are inseparable. She is a mystic, intuitive, and earth-based medicine ceremonial initiate in the Shipibo Amazonian tradition.

Rachel's life experience brings the desire to support individuals who are curious to explore their own relationship to spirituality, grief tending, those experiencing major life transitions, those with terminal diagnoses, and military veterans.
