Rachelle Partridge

Your daughter says awful things about herself that you know, at your core, just aren't true. You wish she could see herself through your eyes for even 10 seconds- how smart, kind, funny, thoughtful, and caring she really is. She's exhausted and keeps asking to stay home from school. She's no longer going to sports, clubs, student council meetings- she just doesn't have it in her. Most nights end with her door closed right after dinner, if she even comes to dinner. You're worried she might be using self-harm to cope, and the fear of that is keeping you up at night. You can't remember the last time you got five hours of sleep. It's been like this for a long time. WHAT IF IT COULD LOOK LIKE THIS INSTEAD? You wake up and she's already getting ready for the day before you've even had your coffee. She walks out the door with a little bit of pep in her step- at least as much as a teenager can have. After school she actually tells you a little about her day, she went to softball practice and says she had a good time. Something has shifted. Those zero-to-one-hundred emotional spirals aren't taking over every day anymore. You feel relief, and it seems like she does, too. She seems more like her true self again. That heavy darkness feels like it's finally starting to melt. WHY WORK WITH RACHELLE- Hey, I'm Rachelle- I'm so glad you landed here. Apart from being obsessed with coffee, having what's basically a whole chicken farm in my suburban backyard and always saying yes to last-minute travel plans... I'm also obsessed with helping teen girls and young women break free from depression, low self-esteem, and feeling stuck. I have a knack for getting teens to actually open up and get to the root of what's going on. This isn't cold, clinical therapy like you see on TV. This is therapy specifically designed for teens and young women who want a space that feels real, human, and actually helpful. I'm human first and a therapist second. I'll be right there with her- through the tears, the laughs, and all of the hard-to-name feelings. I know what it's like to struggle with anxiety and depression, and I also know what it's like to come out on the other side and feel the clouds start to part. If this sounds like what your daughter needs, book a free 15-minute consult. I'll answer any of your questions and we'll see if it's a good fit.
