Welcome Future Prioritizer,

My name is Rachel Baker, I am a licensed clinical social worker who is intentional about helping others to prioritize their mental health in order to live abundantly.

What is holding you back from prioritizing you? Can it be a chronic illness, anxiety, depression, stress, or an unhealthy relationship?

Are you in survival mode and neglecting your ambitions, values, goals, family, health, and boundaries?

Do you find that the needs of others become a priority instead of your own?

If you don't prioritize your life, someone else will.”— Greg McKeown

If you sit back and think about it, our current mode of operation may feel comfortable and familiar, but may not necessarily be healthy. We can live without being intentional about our own life for so long that we feel as if there is no other way to live. However, living out of balance and putting ourselves last is pure toxicity masked as stability.

You have come to the right space where you can unpack, self-reflect, and re-engineer your life to live up to your greatest potential!

 

My Clientele

I focus on supporting cancer patients, cancer survivors, and their co-survivors (family members, spouses or partners, friends, health care providers or colleagues) as we seek together to navigate the complexities that come with a chronic illness.

As a therapist and cancer survivor, I am a part of your journey in order to assist you with unpacking the physical, emotional, social, occupational, and financial stressors that impact your life. You may have symptoms related to self-esteem, grief and loss, depression, and/or anxiety. During our sessions, we will focus on coping strategies to mitigate those symptoms. You can expect attention to be given to psychoeducation that include mindfulness, deep breathing, diet and exercise, and expressive therapy. Your therapy services will be unique to your individual needs, desires, and goals.
