Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Rachel Bivens. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.
Rachel gave us the understanding and patience we needed to be more understanding and patient with each other. She helped us reach a place where we can empathize in place of arguing and guided us to where we could feel comfortable speaking openly with each other and become better partners. Her presence was only a help and I would recommend her to anyone.
Patient and excellent
Rachel makes me feel heard and I like that she’s easy to communicate with. I like the fact that she’s been very helpful with my self care journey and she’s been very involved with my feelings and I feel very transparent with her about everything so far!
Rachel is an amazing therapist; she has the right guidance and advice. In addition, she is compassionate and so kind.
very helpful in context of relationships
Shameless as well and has great advice I wouldn’t pick anyone else….
Rachel is the best therapist I’ve ever had. I’m very grateful to have matched with her. She asks insightful questions and provides input/accountability without judgement. I have told her things I haven’t ever told anybody before and I feel like she has helped me to grow leaps and bounds in our time together. Sometimes she will even relay things about me that I have never told her before. She is very perceptive. I can’t say enough great things about Rachel.
Amazing Therapist who encourages you and makes you feel accomplished. Listens and gives amazing advice. Helped me so much!
My girlfriend and I have truly enjoyed our sessions and interaction with Rachel. She's absolutely amazing. Her calm demeanor, positive outlook and glowing energy really help make us feel important and valued. When we have our sessions, Rachel does an amazing job of listening and always has the right thing to say. Her warm, trusting smile and understanding resonate with us. We really do think of Rachel as an important member of our small circle, ensuring our relationship is a success!! Thank you Rachel!!!
Rachel is simply the best! She is single handily saving my marriage. We’ve been seeing her for a few months after 3 failed therapists we finally found our match. We love her so much that she has now become me and ny husbands individual therapist as well! We just can’t get enough of her hahaha
From a single session that really should’ve counted as two sessions being she allowed my son’s Mom and I to go an hour over session. To us that was completely different from our previous experience. Her ability to get to the core of our layered issues and structure the conversation to allow both parties to see each other’s perspectives is impeccable. Can’t wait for our upcoming sessions.
She takes her time, never rushed, always is making sure you understand what she is trying to tell you. She makes you understand things in a different way and I love that ! I would highly recommend her to anyone !
Rachel is truly the best there is for this kind of therapy. She is consistently present, extremely supportive, tough when we need it, sensitive when appropriate and ultimately a game changer in our relationship struggles. I can not recommend her more highly and consider myself blessed I found such. skilled and talented clinician. THANK YOU, RACHEL! :-)
Rachel is very professional and trustworthy. I really feel she listens to me and helps me to understand some things about myself and my relationships. I really appreciate her
I have noticed a big improvement in myself since I’ve been working with my therapist. It took some time for me to get to this point in my therapy journey. I am forever grateful for choosing the life that I want to live and showing up for myself In every capacity.
She has made me feel heard. She is helping me find the love in me where there were holes. Slowly but surely we are getting this patch work done to make me feel whole again. I am so grateful
I refer her to all my friends. She is the best therapist I’ve ever had and I’ve switched around a lot.
So glad we found Rachel to provide therapy before our wedding! Definitely a 10/10.
Before I ever met my therapist, I was sent a worksheet about things that I needed in a therapist or things that’s a therapist, and I could discuss in our sessions. And the first message I received from her, was explaining to me about myself and my external validation that I need to feel good enough. It is really great that my therapist pin points things that need help or healthy boundaries or for me to be understood. My therapist is really helping me achieve my goals, understand myself better and giving me my confidence in my power back.
Rachel was very helpful in identifying the best next steps for us to get onto a healthier track in our relationship. I appreciate her presence, honesty and empathetic energy, balanced with being knowledgeable and practical. Thank you Rachel!
Very helpful and resourceful.
Mind blowing and life altering. Rachel has helped me realize so much about myself in just a couple sessions. From the first session I have felt safe to be vulnerable . Although I’m not where I want to be in my healing journey I’m also not where I was a few weeks ago.
I can actually witness the change within myself thanks to Rachel. God bless her!
Rachel is very professional and understanding. She is interested in really digging deep to get to the root of the issue.
Rachel is very attentive and a great listener. I was skeptical because I’ve been looking for a therapist for a while now . But Rachel is very great to talk to she really helps you analyze what you’re thinking and why.
Great so far, I am grateful to have met her
Rachel is very helpful to me and understand my goals
