Rachel Gardener, LPC and Bowen Theory Trainer

Rachel Gardner, LPC
512.238.1700

Rachel is a Bowen Family Systems therapist with fifteen years of experience in the mental health field. She has been studying Bowen Family Systems Theory for ten years through group training, personal coaching, and also by engaging in programs and conferences at the Bowen Center for the Study of the Family. She holds the position of Bowen Theory Trainer at New Life Counseling Center wherein she coaches both LPC-Associates and graduate school students towards becoming effective therapists from this theory. Since 2020 she has been integrating the trauma protocol of EMDR to enhance the individual and family’s healing and transformation from a systems perspective.

Whether you are seeking individual or family treatment, she will invite you to explore how family of origin dynamics contribute to the current issue at hand. She is convinced (and she invites you to test it out for yourself) that Bowen Theory has proven itself to be an incredibly efficient “road map” for getting unstuck, and has witnessed countless families discover new options for facing old problems.

 

And if you're interested in Christian/Catholic spirituality, she can incorporate that into the therapy upon request.
