About Me
About Me
I believe that within you lies the wisdom to navigate life’s challenges. Sometimes, it just takes a little guidance to tap into that inner strength. As a therapist, I see counseling as a collaborative journey. Together, we can create a safe and supportive space where we address the mental and emotional hurdles you may be facing.
​
With over 10 years of experience, I’ve had the privilege of working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families through a range of life stressors, including relationship issues, transitions, grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, and addiction. I specialize in working with individuals looking to build healthy interpersonal relationships, set boundaries, develop coping strategies, and work through grief and loss. I also have expertise in supporting neurodivergent individuals, Highly Sensitive People (HSPs), and spiritual empaths.

Here's The Story
Solstice Counseling was founded by Rachel Magliari, LPC, NCC, CADC, with a deep passion for helping individuals find healing and growth. After many years of experience working in community agencies, rehab centers, drug and alcohol treatment programs, and various mental health facilities, Rachel decided to turn her dream into reality by opening a private practice.
Rachel is not only a skilled therapist but also a natural healer and guide. As an empath, she has the ability to deeply connect with individuals from all walks of life, offering compassion and insight that allows them to explore their most vulnerable and transformative areas. With her intuitive understanding and gentle approach, Rachel helps clients navigate the deeper parts of themselves, fostering growth, healing, and self-discovery along the way.
At Solstice Counseling, we’re committed to providing a safe, calming space where you can feel truly seen, heard, and valued. Whether you're facing life transitions, processing grief, or overcoming mental health challenges, we’re here to walk alongside you, supporting you every step of the way. Together, we can uncover your inner wisdom and embark on a path toward lasting transformation.

Solstice Counseling is more than just a practice—it’s a virtual sanctuary where individuals can experience deep healing, reconnect with their true selves, and embrace their journey of personal growth.

My Professional Background
My professional licenses and certifications include Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), National Certified Counselor (NCC), and a Nationally Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CADC). I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Health Science with an emphasis in Prevention and Addiction Studies from Boise State University. My passion for mental health and addiction recovery led me to pursue a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health
Counseling from Capella University, where I also obtained a Graduate Certificate in Contemporary Theory in Mental Health Services. Following my interest in incorporating holistic healing to my practice, I obtained a Certificate in Energy Medicine from Boise State University and am a Reiki practitioner in training! I am also Human Rights Certified through the Wassmuth Center of Human Rights.
​
Over the years, I have gained a wealth of experience working in diverse settings, providing care to individuals, couples, and families. I have a background in a multitude of mental health services including providing therapy in community mental health agencies, utilization management for behavioral health services, conducting crisis counseling, and performing mental health assessments for state health and correctional departments. I’ve also had the privilege of working in residential facilities, where I provided individual therapy, group counseling, and support for clients facing mental health and substance use challenges.
​
Throughout my career, I’ve worked with a wide range of clients—from those struggling with mental health crises to individuals recovering from addiction. I believe in a holistic approach to healing and am committed to providing a compassionate, client-centered experience for each person I work with.
My Approach
My philosophy is rooted in the idea that counseling is a partnership—a collaborative relationship where we create a safe and supportive space for exploration and growth. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Every individual is unique, and my approach is flexible, tailored to meet your specific needs and goals. Together, we’ll address the mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of your life, helping you create lasting transformation.
I am passionate about helping you not only navigate life’s struggles but also find meaning and healing through them. Whether it's working through grief, building healthy relationships, or embracing change, I’m here to support you with empathy, compassion, and the belief that you have the power to shape your own journey.
Passion & Purpose
What truly excites me about my work is the opportunity to help people uncover their inner strength and wisdom. I believe that deep healing comes from within, and my role as a counselor is to help you reconnect with that inherent power. There's something incredibly fulfilling about walking alongside someone on their journey of self-discovery and watching them grow through life's challenges.
