About Rachel Kraft

My Story...

At 13, I went on a school field trip and attended my first yoga class. It was also my first experience with meditation, and it immediately piqued my curiosity. My older brother, Jason, became my mentor in meditation, mindfulness, and self-awareness. He would share stories, offer insights, and guide me whenever I felt anxious, overwhelmed, or stressed.

Throughout adolescence and into young adulthood, I struggled with anxiety and perfectionism. The loss of my father intensified these challenges, pushing my anxiety to an all-time high. My coping tools included therapy, meditation, yoga, hiking, and the unwavering support of family and friends.

I felt something was missing and began exploring whether there was such a thing as an "Anxiety Coach." Thankfully, I discovered somatic therapy and connected with a coach specializing in anxiety. That’s when everything shifted—I found my inner child and began to understand my anxiety in a whole new light. I knew I had to bring this transformative work to others. Within six months, I was enrolled in a ten-month certification program for somatic therapy!

Initially, my background was in psychology and social work (MSW), though for the longest time, I wasn’t sure how to channel it professionally (that’s a much longer story, haha). One thing I always knew, though, was my desire to help others and make a meaningful impact.

Which brings me to today! I’m passionate about supporting my clients on their journeys of self-discovery and transformation. Understanding your body and cultivating a deep mind-body connection is incredibly empowering. Breathwork, somatic therapy, embodiment practices, and inner-child healing have profoundly changed my life, and I know they can support you too!
