Rachel Kolade, M.A. |
I believe that our relational wounds, though painful, can be transformed through the healing power of therapy. My approach is rooted in the conviction that a safe therapeutic environment fosters space to explore, connect, and ultimately discover profound healing. When we share our stories in a secure space, we can explore our inner worlds with curiosity rather than shame, leading to a more grounded and secure external life. My passion lies in helping clients discover what it means to feel safe in their mind, body, and soul. I see therapy as a collaborative journey where we work together to discover our full selves, free from the constraints of past wounds. The work we get to do is deeply meaningful, and I’m honored to walk alongside you as you journey your path to safety and self-discovery. I look forward to embarking on this transformative process with you, as we navigate the path towards healing and wholeness.
