"When helping our clients navigate the stress of divorce, I often borrow the line from the lawyer in Breaking Bad who, confounded by the chaos Skyler White’s life, tells her client "I'm half as qualified and twice the price of a therapist."   As a law practice philosophy, we strongly encourage our divorce and custody clients to seek qualified support from counselors.  We have had many families benefit from Rachel Rubenstein’s warmth and experience.  We especially appreciate her ability to connect with people during life transitions.  We are fortunate to have Rachel as a resource in our community."

She has a calm, non-judgmental approach that can help you find peace even in the midst of chaos.  There are plenty of good therapists out there, and plenty of bad ones too. Rachel is one of the good ones. Whether you're experiencing a crisis or just in need of a little advice and a reassuring sounding board, consider giving Rachel a call."
