Rachel Elder

Licensed Mental Health Counselor

“A walk-the-talk therapist passionate about working with couples and individuals dealing with relational issues.”

About Me

I'm passionate about helping couples and individuals strengthen their relationships. When dealing with relational issues, it can feel overwhelming. I offer grounded, practical support, guiding you to understand patterns and build healthier connections. My approach helps you apply insights directly, so you can transform frustrations into clear, respectful interactions. Clients find my guidance helps them navigate challenges with confidence and renewed connection.

Approach

I guide people through practical, skill-focused sessions that translate therapeutic insight into clearer, day-to-day interactions. I meet in Seattle and online, working in English to keep sessions accessible and steady. Sessions move between brief check-ins, focused practice of communication habits, and simple between-session experiments to try new patterns in real life. This approach fits those ready to take small, concrete steps toward healthier connection with steady, compassionate support.
