Who We Are

Rachel Simpfenderfer LMFT #154488

Therapist

Hi, I’m Rachel, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist passionate about helping all people navigate life’s challenges with confidence, clarity, and compassion. My approach is rooted in authenticity and deep respect for each person’s unique journey.

My practice is client-centered, meaning you set the pace—we walk the path together. Whether you’re facing anxiety, emotionally overwhelmed, or having relationship difficulties, I’m here to support you with empathy and evidence-based strategies that honor your lived experience.

I enjoy and am experienced working with women and children and since I have ADHD myself, I have a particular focus on ADHD symptom management. So often, the signs of ADHD—especially in girls and women—go unnoticed or misunderstood. I’m passionate about helping my clients understand how their brains work, develop tools for success, and build self-worth rooted in their strengths, not their struggles.

I’m not here to “fix” you—because you’re not broken. I’m here to help you reconnect with your own power, find balance, and create meaningful change from the inside out.
