Rae Saunders

Rae Saunders is a licensed clinical social worker and therapist who specializes in supporting women of color and LGBTQ+ clients who are navigating the challenges of depression and anxiety. She helps her clients learn to prioritize themselves without guilt, recognizing that many caring individuals find themselves exhausted from focusing solely on others. Rae’s clients are often at a pivotal point in their lives where they realize that something is missing but feel overwhelmed and unsure of how to initiate change. She is dedicated to helping them discover the clarity and confidence needed to take those crucial first steps. By fostering a safe, non-judgmental environment, Rae encourages exploration of how past experiences shape their current lives. Her therapeutic approach is strengths-based and integrates mindfulness, Internal Family Systems, and various effective modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). As a biracial therapist, she understands the unique challenges of navigating multiple identities and is passionate about guiding her clients through this journey. Rae works best with those who are ready to commit to their personal growth and prioritize therapy in their lives.
