Rachael Scholl, LCSW
she/her
Hi, I’m Rachael Scholl, LCSW. In my practice, I work with clients to explore past experiences and how they might be influencing current thoughts, feelings, and behaviors — nurturing insight and awareness to elicit growth and desired change. I view therapy as a collaborative process that can assist in identifying and working through challenges so that life can be lived with greater balance and self-compassion. I strive to create a safe space for individuals to freely express their authentic selves, while working together to set and progress toward therapeutic goals.

Balance is not something you find, it's something you create.
As an eating disorder specialist, Rachael is passionate about the link between mind and body — recognizing the importance of simultaneous healing. Rachael is grounded in evidence-based practice, utilizing an integrated and trauma-informed approach influenced by cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, exposure response and prevention therapy, and mindfulness practice; while employing strengths-based and person-centered frameworks. Rachael holds the belief that connection serves as a powerful aid to the recovery process and encourages the involvement of a support system.
Yes, and...
When I’m not working you can usually find me exploring — whether that be at the thrift store, on a walking trail, trying a new recipe, or any goings-on that the city of Richmond has to offer. I also cherish downtime, which typically comes in the form of snuggling with my two rambunctious cats and watching movies.
My loved ones would describe me as easy-going, curious, silly, thoughtful, and understanding.
We'd be a good fit if...
- You’re looking to deepen the relationship you have with yourself, but may not be sure where to start or are feeling anxious to begin
- You’re curious to explore new coping strategies and would like support in the process
- You’re looking for a safe space to process on your thoughts and inner-most feelings
