About Us
Your partner in raising teens
Hi, I’m Rachael—your best friend who just happens to be a PhD student specializing in teen development. Think of me as the friend you’d invite over for coffee when parenting feels overwhelming. Whether you’re navigating chores, grades, relationships, or the unique challenges of raising a student-athlete, I’m here to help.
At Blooming Birch, I work mostly with moms, creating a supportive space for connection, guidance, and practical advice. I also work directly with teens and student-athletes who need extra support to thrive on and off the field. Parenting teens doesn’t have to feel like a solo sport—grab your coffee, get comfortable, and let’s figure it out together. You’ve got this, and I’ve got your back.

Testimonial
Real Stories, Real Impact
See how Blooming Birch has helped families thrive through connection and support.
Rachael’s coaching completely changed the way I communicate with my teen. She gave me practical strategies that actually work, and now we talk openly without the usual fights. We used to fight about everything, but now we communicate respectfully, and I see such a change in my son. I can’t recommend her enough!
K.W.
Mom of a 15-year-old
Rachael honestly changed how I see myself. I was feeling super down and didn’t think I could do much, but she helped me see myself as a leader. I was just leading the wrong direction. I almost am done with my associates degree. Also, I started a lawn mowing business which I never even thought of before. She believed in me even when I didn’t, and now I feel like I’m really on the right path. She made a big difference for me.

22-year-old male student
I thought being strict and keeping control was the best way to get my kids on the right track, but instead, they avoided me and lied all the time. Working with Rachael changed everything. She helped me see that I was holding my teens back and needed to shift my approach. With her guidance, I set boundaries, learned better communication and listening strategies, and started recognizing my role in the drama cycle. Now, I’m closer to my twins than ever—they actually want to spend time with me. I’m so grateful for Rachael’s support!
