THERAPY IS A DIALOGUE

Rachael Toth, MA, LMFTA (she/her)

I am perpetually awestruck by the emergent possibilities in combinations; the energetic, creative, relational potential made in an interaction. In former professional lifetimes, I’ve played with combinations, studying the interaction of color, flavor, and social forces. As I am continually becoming- shaping and being shaped by interactions- my curiosity and ways of observing and influencing interactions transforms. Attuning to emergent possibility is a practice across all disciplines including therapy, mothering, friendship, learning, and writing. My resounding question in dialogues is, “What are we making together?”

…so you may be interested to know a bit about who you’ll talk with.

My lens is informed by my commitment to collaborative-dialogic practices and relational responsibility, agential realism, reproductive rights advocacy for all, my experience of synesthesia, radical imagination, and my intense affection for the creative process.

  • I hold an MA in Couple and Family Therapy and a certificate in Grief and Trauma Counseling from Antioch University New England. In addition to regular consultation, mentorship, and supervision with leaders in the systemic therapy field, I also hold formal training in the Gottman Method Levels I & II, DBT, Perinatal Mental Health Counseling, The Developmental Model, and am currently taking a 5-month training of Diane Gehart’s Unifying Framework.

    Little known fact: Couples therapists receive specific training in sex therapy. It is considered part of our scope of practice. I am receiving additional training to become a Certified Sexuality Educator.

    In the near future, you may return to this page to view a complete list of trainings and conferences I have participated in for the past five years.
