Why did you become a therapist, and what motivates you to continue?

I'm a generalist working in rural Montana with a passion for trauma processing. I specialize in EMDR therapy and work with diverse needs and experiences, both virtually and in person. Outside of my office, I'm a musician, a runner, a parent, and a lover of the great outdoors. As a fifth generation Montanan, I have an academic interest in expanding the capacity of the mental health system in rural areas and bringing trauma processing into daily practice.

I'm a licensed professional counselor. My practice is focused on working with clients with childhood relational trauma, and neurodivergent people, (people with adhd, autistic and bipolar neurotypes. The core of the way I work is creating a safe space where you can explore your whole experience as a person. Creating a more enjoyable, sustainable life for yourself may mean deepening self-acceptance and self-understanding, practicing boundaries and advocating for yourself in relationships, exploring your values or finding your way through a difficult transition.

Hello and welcome! I'm Rachel Phelps, a dedicated Licensed Professional Counselor in PA. With a compassionate approach to therapy, I offer outpatient mental health services tailored to your unique journey towards wellness. My practice is built on the belief that everyone deserves a supportive space to grow and heal. Since May 2023, I've been empowering individuals through platforms like Grow Therapy, Better Help, Headway, and Talkspace, ensuring flexible access to care. In June 2023, I opened my own private practice, I am Here LLC. My experience extends to providing intensive in-home family therapy for children at risk, nurturing their emotional well-being right where they need it most. My educational background includes a PhD in Counseling Education and Supervision from Walden University and an MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Immaculata University. But beyond degrees, my passion lies in connecting with you on a human level—listening intently, understanding deeply, and guiding effectively. Whether it's navigating life's challenges individually or together with family, my goal is to equip you with the tools for lasting change. From anxiety and depression to crisis intervention, we'll explore solutions that resonate with your life story. Let's embark on this healing journey together. Your well-being is my priority, and I'm here to support you every step of the way. TREATMENT PHILOSOPHY: I believe in focusing on rapport building and the Therapeutic relationship first and foremost. I value supporting my clients in validating their experiences and feelings as well as helping them work through processing, reframing, and emotional regulation.

I primarily focus on providing psychotherapy to men seeking to gain control in their lives and are searching for their purpose. The modern man has to face obstacles and difficulties in life that did not exist with previous generations and navigating through all these roadblocks alone can be extremely difficult and sometimes traumatizing.  I have partnered with Mentaya to help you save money on therapy.

I am a licensed clinical social worker and have been practicing for 7 years. I am here to offer you a safe, relaxed and judgement free atmosphere, as seeking therapy can be intimidating. Together, we will learn how to move through life with positive solutions and gain inner peace.

I believe that each and every one of my client's has within them the power to heal themselves and change their own behavior. My purpose is to use my experience and knowledge to collaborate with you and assist in analyzing and determining patterns of learned behavior or thinking that, while understandable, haven't been working out as well as you'd like. Then, together, I will assist you in building awareness, discovering your power, and teaching you how to use your power to make your own life altering positive change. My goal for each one of my client's is not only to help, but to have each one leave my office feeling empowered. I utilize techniques and perspectives associated with cognitive-behavioral, interpersonal, and humanistic therapies. Using an integrative approach, I will work with you to develop a treatment plan that pulls the most positive aspects of each theory to customize a plan that works best for your individual set of concerns. Availability: Virtual appointments available Mon-Thurs 10am-6pm. In-person appointments available Fri & Sun 12pm-6pm. If you have any questions, or just want to call to discuss if I may be the right counselor for you, please feel free to call or send me an email. Thank you.
