Rachel Napierala, MSW, LCSW, CSAC,
About Rachel Napierala
I am a licensed clinical social worker and a certified substance abuse counselor who received my undergraduate and master’s degree from the University of WI-Milwaukee. I started providing therapy in 1998 and work with adolescents aged 14 and older, adults and couples. My specialties include depression, anxiety, infertility/adoption concerns; and marriage issues. I believe in empowering individuals to identify their strengths and to assist in self-directed change. I have had multiple life experiences that have challenged my wellbeing only to grow stronger as a person. I am the mother of two wonderful children.
