About Me

Hello! My name is Rachel Higgins. I am an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist with a passion for helping people work through mental health issues. I earned a Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Our Lady of the Lake University in 2022, and a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from Texas State University (Go Bobcats!) in 2014. I am trained in systemic, post-modern therapy approaches such as Solution Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Collaborative Therapy. I am also trained in Eye Movement, Desensitization, and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), which is a trauma processing technique. At the end of September 2024, I will be trained in Equine EMDR Therapy, as well!

Personal info: I am a wife, mother, and natural Houstonian. I enjoy exploring great new food spots around the city, especially sushi or Mexican food. I love spending my free time with my family by taking road trips in our RV, exploring, and trying new things. However, I also enjoy relaxing and reading a good book or watching a movie with friends and family. Feel free to ask me anything else you would like to know!
