Rachel Forbes is a licensed therapist, she holds a master’s degree in clinical social work, and through her practice she offers a unique lens to therapeutic work and adoption advocacy.

Rachel specializes in attachment trauma and adoption, helping adoptees and adoptive families understand and care for the many layers that exist within the adoption experience. Rachel’s practice is founded upon the belief that we are all human – meaning that it is natural to feel a multitude of emotions that are both unique individually, as well as interconnected with our relationships with others.

Maybe you’ve done such a good job of “managing for so long” having to do something different or talk to someone can feel uncomfortable. The idea of therapy, to me, felt like I had to admit that there was something wrong with me or that I’d be showing the world that I was broken or didn't have it all together… but when my health started to suffer, and I was anxious 24/7… I realized my body was trying to tell me something was wrong and I learned that there is no “good health” without mental health. Therapy was the answer for me, it helped me put down all of the heavy things that I was carrying that didn’t belong to me. While therapy can provide so much relief, finding a therapist can feel so daunting.
