Welcome! It has been a dream of mine to open up my very own mental health therapy practice and I cannot wait to share that passion with those around me. I have been working in the mental health field since I graduated from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in 2018. I have had experience working in a variety of mental health care settings over the years. My journey working in this field began when I was a mental health specialist at a residential for 7-21 year olds with emotional, mental, and behavioral health challenges. After some time there, I moved on to gain experience at a behavioral health hospital. Throughout my master's program, I was an intern working directly with local military families and at a VA working in the suicide prevention department. After receiving my master's degree, I started my career in private individual therapy and haven't left since! I have experience working with all ages and different areas of mental health. My specialties include military, anxiety, mood disorders, eating disorders, suicidal ideations, self-harming, etc. I understand that times can be difficult and I know I can’t change the world, but I will try everything in my power to change yours for the better and will be there to support you every step of the way! Sincerely, Rachel Day, LCSW Owner & Founder
