Welcome back to the show! Today, I’m sitting down with Rachel Mooers, a brilliant psychotherapist who specializes in mindbody pain, chronic symptoms, anxiety, depression, and trauma. Rachel is the Clinical Director at the Better Mind Center and runs her own private practice, Mojave Wellness Counseling, in Nevada. She brings deep expertise in Pain Reprocessing Therapy and Emotional Awareness and Expression Therapy—and, more importantly, a deeply compassionate approach to healing.
In this conversation, we explore a counterintuitive but essential truth: when it comes to healing—whether from chronic symptoms, emotional pain, or life’s biggest struggles—the answer isn’t to work harder or fix ourselves. Instead, it’s about self-acceptance, ease, and moving toward what actually feels good. Rachel shares insights from her own healing journey, the tools she’s found most transformative, and how this mindset shift applies to everything from relationships to career growth.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in the cycle of trying to “fix” yourself, this episode is for you. Let’s dive in.
