  • Rachel Porter

    Rachel is currently pursuing her Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Adams State University. She brings a unique background that combines experience in health psychology research, clinical support, and professional roles centered on communication, relationship-building, and supporting individuals through a variety of life experiences.

    Rachel’s approach to counseling is warm, collaborative, and person-centered. She believes that each client is the expert on their own experiences and that meaningful change begins with a strong therapeutic relationship built on trust, compassion, and understanding. Drawing from approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and trauma-informed care, Rachel works alongside clients to explore challenges, build self-awareness, and develop tools that support personal growth and well-being.

    Prior to beginning her counseling journey, Rachel was a research and clinical assistant in a health psychology setting, where she supported evidence-based interventions, group facilitation, and client-centered care. Her experiences have strengthened her passion for helping individuals better understand themselves, navigate life transitions, and create meaningful change.

    Having spent time living abroad, Rachel brings a multicultural perspective and curiosity to her work with clients. She values creating a space where people of all backgrounds feel respected, heard, and supported. Rachel believes therapy is not about changing who you are, but about helping you reconnect with your strengths, values, and the parts of yourself that may have been overlooked.

    Outside of the therapy room, Rachel enjoys spending time outdoors, exploring the mountains, staying active, and continuing her lifelong commitment to learning and growth.
