Hi, My name is Racheal Poole. Welcome to my profile. I am a therapist that specializes in helping people heal from overwhelming life experiences and move forward. I use a variety of approaches to assist with these goals. I really enjoy working with college students. I know you are making some of the biggest decisions of your life and this definitely can be a time of transition.

Next, if this applies to you, we can revisit your past for the purpose of helping you to work on healing for the present. I know looking me up was a big step. Thank you, I am so glad you stopped by my profile. If you want know more, we can set up a free introductory meeting by phone or video. Please call or email me next to set this up. Talk soon!

A warm and compassionate space for you to feel, express, process & move through your emotions. I believe that therapy should be as unique as you are. There isn't a one-size-fits-all approach. Each session is tailored to consider the many dimensions of who you are, embracing a holistic, whole-person perspective. While many say it, I truly mean it. My practice integrates traditional talk therapy with somatic (body-based) approaches to offer you a comprehensive path towards healing.

All sessions are done virtually.

My background is working with college and graduate/medical student populations. I specialize in relationships and attachment issues, family problems, depression, anxiety, grief, academic stress, adjustment and identity concerns. I enjoy working with my clients to explore how their problems developed, build understanding around why their problematic patterns continue, and empower them to make meaningful changes in their lives. My approach to therapy is integrative and collaborative. I often take an interpersonal approach to help clients face difficult emotions while also employing skills based techniques such as cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavioral therapy. My style is conversational and my goal is for the therapeutic space to feel comfortable and allow the client to be their authentic self.

I’m here to help you know all that is possible for you and clear blocks of self-doubt, fear, shame, grief and other very human emotions and experiences in your way of a nourishing, self-loving and joyful life. My approach is collaborative, intuitive and full of heart and is rooted in my own lived experience of healing, learning and emerging. I weave together a range of therapeutic healing modalities including IFS, Hakomi and other somatic, nature-based and anti-oppressive practices. I would love to support you on your healing journey! I warmly welcome you to reach out and see if we are a match to work together.

Life isn’t always easy. Sometimes, even the strongest people amongst us need a little bit of help to work through some of life’s more challenging problems. Everyone has battles to fight and hurdles to overcome at some point. Whether you struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, or any other issue, you should know that there is hope for a better tomorrow. You might be initially hesitant to seek out help and support for personal matters, but when you do, you will feel confident that you are taking a courageous first step towards getting to a better place and being a better you. My practice specializes in treating individuals, couples and families, and through years of experience, I’m confident that no problem is too great to overcome. Through therapy, there is always a way to address the issues you face and learn coping strategies to help you both right now and in the future.

I understand that many seek therapy during very difficult times, times when overwhelming life stressors and transitions begin to interfere with daily life, relationships, or a sense of well-being. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and psychotherapist, I’m here to help adults ages 18 and up develop practical tools and insight so these symptoms no longer dictate how they live. Throughout my career, I’ve worked with patients in overcoming mental health symptoms that impact day-to-day functioning. This includes discomfort in social situations due to anxiety, depression, or low motivation; or seeking treatment because of significant life challenges such as relationship discord, professional stressors and burnout, and loss. No matter the struggle, my goal is to assist in the development of tools and coping skills that help patients better manage emotions. If you relate to these struggles and are ready to hear more, please reach out today. Together, we will build practical tools, insight, and resilience so you can navigate challenges with greater confidence and clarity. I believe a strong collaborative relationship is key to helping you manage symptoms of anxiety and depression and move toward living the life you want. That’s why therapy with me is collaborative, respectful, and focused on creating a space where you feel heard and understood. Our time together is conversational, not clinical; I don’t use a lot of clinical jargon, as I feel that this approach allows for the clearest communication and reduces the presence of a power dynamic. When people ask me why I chose the field of social work and became a therapist, my answer is simple: it just seemed to fit me. My first introduction to social work and psychotherapy was during my second year of college. Of course, I had an interest in psychology, but I’ve also always had a keen curiosity about people and their stories. Social work and psychotherapy certainly allow me to combine those two interests. Still, it wasn't just the course work in those classes that caught my attention – it was the professors. They spoke with compassion about helping others in a way that was authentic and genuine. By the end of those classes, I'd found a profession that allowed me to be my authentic self and still help people. I enjoy live music and spending time at the beach when I’m not with patients. I'm also an avid hockey and baseball fan – go NY Islanders and Mets!

Welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with adults navigating life transitions, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma, particularly experiences related to family of origin and attachment. While I work with adults of all ages, I have a special interest in supporting emerging adults - including college, graduate, and medical students - as they manage the emotional and relational challenges that can arise during these stages of life. I support clients in addressing current life challenges while also seeking to answer questions about why these challenges exist in the first place. I do this through a collaborative, relational, and trauma-informed approach that blends deeper insight with practical support. Drawing from psychodynamic and attachment-based work, along with CBT, DBT, and mindfulness, I help clients understand patterns, regulate emotions, and build skills that support meaningful, lasting change. Starting therapy can feel uncertain, and it’s completely normal to have questions or mixed emotions. Please know you don’t have to figure it out on your own. I aim to create a space where you feel safe, supported, and understood. If you’re considering therapy, I invite you to reach out to see if we would be a good fit.

I get that college can be a big life transition and overwhelming at times. I specialize in anxiety and stress and help students who feel stuck in worry, overthinking, panic, or burnout.

I use and teach practical and energetic tools for nervous system regulation so you're not just talking about your stress - you're learning how to manage it in real time.
