Rachel Veal, LPC

With more than 20 years of experience, I work with older teens and adults who are navigating anxiety, OCD, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and the feeling of being stuck in patterns that are difficult to change. Maybe you're constantly overthinking, second-guessing yourself, or worrying about getting things "right." Maybe anxiety is keeping you from doing the things you want to do, or OCD has made it difficult to trust your thoughts and move forward. Or perhaps you've spent years taking care of everyone else while losing touch with what you need. Therapy can help you understand these patterns, build greater confidence in yourself, and create meaningful change. I provide a warm, supportive space where you can be honest, feel understood, and work toward living with less anxiety and more freedom. My approach is collaborative and individualized to your needs whether you're working through OCD and anxiety, navigating a difficult life transition, changing long-standing patterns, or simply wanting to feel more like yourself again. I offer Individual therapy and intensive individual sessions as well as both in-person and telehealth appointments, providing flexibility to meet you where you are. I believe therapy works best when it feels genuine and human. While I bring professional experience and evidence-based approaches to my work, I also believe in humor, authenticity, and meeting people where they are.
