Raquel is amazing. She actively listens to me and helps give me guidance. She makes me feel comfortable so that I'm able to open up completely with her.

Racquel is an amazing listener. She is able to listen and understand me even when I may not be able to articulate my feelings in the best way. She helps me see from a different perspective and change my way of thinking for the better. I can do this with her great ideas and tools she suggests to put them into practice. She has helped me manage my anxiety and depression much better than from where I started.

Raquel does a great job of helping to save me from me (which is no easy feat). She listens and hears my issues for what they are and not necessarily what I may classify them as. Her ability to suggest bite size adjustments helps me to better take it in and apply it. She is easy to reach and reaches out when I Crawl into my hole and go M.I.A. She has definitely been who/what I needed in this season of life.
