Raquel is passionate about helping people navigate the many complexities that life throws their way. From unhealthy patterns and major life transitions, to simply wanting to improve the quality of a relationship or build confidence, Raquel helps her clients address and unpack these dynamics and take the appropriate steps toward leading healthier, more fulfilling lives.
I am looking forward to connecting with college-aged individuals who are beginning or continuing their therapy journey. I am pulled toward practicing therapy in this transitional phase of life because I know that young adulthood is filled with many questions about identity, friendship, self-esteem, relationships, classes, and careers. Awareness of individuality and childhood norms grows during his developmental phase, which can lead to experiencing many mental health symptoms. I believe in empowering each person to grow into the truest form of themselves and live life to the fullest. I utilize a trauma informed approach in my practice and tend to use modalities such as CBT, mindfulness, meditation, emotion-based therapy, EMDR, and IFS. I currently work at Allow Therapy Partners in the Rockford Office. I love to do in person appointments and I am also available for virtual sessions. Please reach out! I am happily accepting new clients at this time.

Life changes and personal growth are inevitable, and sometimes can be overwhelming and difficult to navigate. ESPECIALLY attending college, being on our own for the first time, and trying to figure out this “”adulting” thing. A lack of change or growth can cause us to feel unhappy with ourselves. Whether you are struggling with adapting to changes in life or are feeling stuck, or feel pressure to trying to figure out your future, I’d love to help you! My approach is to meet you wherever you are (emotionally, mentally, spiritually, or physically) and help you set goals (at your pace) that you want to accomplish in therapy. My goal is to offer you a laid-back, sometimes fun, safe place for you to process your challenges, to feel supported, and to build confidence in your ability to initiate that desired change; or face those scary, inevitable changes. I received my Master of Social Work from Grand Valley State University. My experience has been focused on working with children, adolescents, and families in residential, school and home-based, and inpatient mental health treatment settings. I have a background in working with mild to severe mental health issues including anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation/self-harm, perinatal/postpartum issues, bipolar and related mood disorders, psychotic disorders, personality disorders, stress management, life transitions, grief and loss, and co-occurring disorders. Therapeutic approaches I commonly utilize are Motivational Interviewing, Brief-Solution, Focused Therapy, Strengths-Based, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills, and Mindfulness Practices.
