Beyond Words 

Lasting change from the inside out

My coaching and counseling services emphasize a holistic, empowering, strength-based approach, helping people come home to the best within themselves and their relationships, transforming old patterns and challenges from the inside out.

Recent advances in neuroscience have radically changed our understanding of how our brains work and how change really happens. The part of our brains that are intellectually smart are different from the part that holds emotion and memory, which is why we humans can be so complicated and confusing sometimes in how we react and respond. The key to wholeness and healing and greater freedom from negative patterns is an integrative and experiential mindfulness-based approach, which is my specialty.

I am committed to helping you discover and meet your goals, using the best and the latest our field has to offer. Let’s get started!

MA, Integral Counseling Psychology | Certified Emotionally Focused Therapist | Certified Discernment Counselor

Rachel offers compassionate, integrative coaching and therapy for individuals and couples. Her work is informed by her deep commitment to mindfulness, to loving presence, and to nurturing the wholeness and unique gifts of each person and relationship.

Rachel holds a Masters in Integral Counseling Psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies, and a Bachelors Degree in Public Policy from Brown University, and she has completed extensive advanced psychotherapy training in approaches which are both gentle and profoundly effective. She received coaching training from the CliniCoach Academy. Some of the primary influences on her practice include Internal Family Systems, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, Brief Discernment Counseling, Hakomi Experiential Therapy, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, and Vipassana mindfulness practice. Rachel was a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist for over 15 years (CA, VT, ME) before shifting to primarily working under the coaching umbrella and with clients from around the country.

When she’s not wearing her various professional hats, Rachel enjoys gardening, baking sweet things, laughing with her family, making good trouble, and exploring the wonderful nooks and crannies of Vermont, preferably by bicycle or on cross-country skis.

What Others Are Saying…

“Rachel Zamore is one of the very best discernment counselors in the United States.  I would send loved ones to her if their marriage was on the brink.”
William Doherty, PhD

Director of the Minnesota Couples on the Brink Project at the University of Minnesota, and originator of discernment counseling

Rachel provides grounded, practical support and space for deep transformation.  The work felt very spiritual to me and had immediate effects on my day to day life.  I now feel greater ease, connection and strength in myself.

I want to thank you for helping us through this very difficult time in our marriage.  This was probably the hardest thing that I have done so far in my life but your wonderful guidance throughout the discernment process was what got me through it.

I truly can’t offer enough recommendation for Rachel Zamore. We were living a nightmare and had no idea how were we to climb out of the pit we were in and rebuild our life together.

I am eternally grateful in how Rachel taught/encouraged/counseled my husband and I to meet each other as if for the first time, all over again. In fact, I’d say she helped us meet our inner selves as well, and bring our true selves to the table. Counseling with Rachel was worth every dollar we wisely spent reaping the benefits of her years of knowledge and the gift of her abilities.

We just celebrated our 28th anniversary and look forward to many more years together celebrating with our children and future grandchildren, together!
