Hi! I'm Rachael Parsons Svendsen, M.S., LMFT
I’m a trauma therapist, a mom, and a nervous system guide for people who’ve tried everything and still feel stuck.
​
My work blends cutting-edge somatic therapy, deep attachment repair, and psychedelic-informed care to help you move from survival mode to real, lasting healing.
​
You're not broken. Your body has just been carrying too much for too long.
​
I’m here to walk with you as you find your way back to what got left behind.
You’ve Tried Everything…
And You’re Still Not Feeling Better​
Let’s talk about what no one tells you about healing.
Therapy. Journaling. Meditation. Self-help books.
You’ve done the work, so why are you still feeling anxious, stuck, or shut down?
​
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.
Most of my clients come to me after years of trying to “figure it out,” only to realize what they needed wasn’t more information.
It was support for the nervous system.
Healing isn’t about more information—it’s about trauma-informed, body-based support for your nervous system. Whether you’re living with PTSD, CPTSD, or just feel stuck in survival mode, there’s another way forward.​​
You don’t have to do this alone anymore.
Two Paths To Deep Healing
Somatic Therapy
Psychedelic Therapy


Somatic therapy helps you reconnect with yourself by working directly with the nervous system.
Rather than retelling painful stories, this approach focuses on your body’s natural responses to gently release what’s been stuck.
Psychedelic Somatic Therapy uses non-ordinary states of consciousness to help the nervous system reprocess trauma at the root.
This isn’t about analyzing. It’s about letting your body lead the way to healing, in a way that feels safe and deeply supported.
