Rachael Starr Bruck

Psychotherapy & Coaching

Though you may not yet know how to move through the current challenges you face, being open and ready to receive effective support and guidance is a powerful starting place.


I am passionate about working with clients across the lifespan who want to understand themselves better in order to overcome whatever they feel is standing in their way or holding them back.

Sessions are a safe and collaborative space to process, get curious and move towards greater clarity of what the next best steps are that nurture growth and healing.

I believe that impactful support for healthy self-development is a balance of awareness and action. While good therapy offers a gentle space for reflection and self- knowing, it often fails to create change in one’s life. Though successful coaching produces tangible results, without the deeper emotional work these gains are often short-lived.

My approach offers the gifts of both fields. A protected time to explore one’s inner world and a mindful partnership that encourages useful challenge and accountability as a means to grow and thrive.
