Rachel Epstein
I am a Clinical and Organizational Psychologist. I have worked with at-risk youth and families in hospital and private settings.
Why 7Chairs? I am motivated by the thought of making emotional support accessible, bringing together people who feel no one can relate to their situation or understand what they are going through, and providing relief through the group setting.
“When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.” (Viktor Frankl)

Why 7Chairs? I am a strong believer that we are stronger together and I strive to help people build positive relationships with others going through similar life experiences

Why 7Chairs? I have found that an amazing process happens when common-ground groups meet, especially in a chat/text-based group, where people share their most intimate issues in a safe and non-judgmental environment.
