Rachael Taliancich, MA, LPC
Licensed Professional Counselor
Rachael Taliancich is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Registered Play Therapist (RPT) having earned her bachelor’s in Business Administration at The University of Texas at Dallas and her master’s in Professional Counseling at Amberton University and is a member of the American Counseling Association, Texas Counseling Association, and Association for Play Therapy. Rachael grew up as an “army brat” moving repeatedly throughout childhood and adolescence which helped her develop an appreciation for other cultures and perspectives. Exposure to these varied experiences fueled the belief everyone deserves to feel heard, respected, understood, and cared for.
Many individuals change careers at least three times in their lifetimes, and Rachael is no exception. She began her young career in information technology and then made a complete change as a childcare provider and administrator. Her love for helping children and their families develop and grow was ignited with this experience. Working with families influenced her holistic counseling approach by seeing that individuals do not operate in isolation but rather are interconnected members of their families and larger systems. We are influenced by and have strengths and challenges related to these systems.
​
Rachael is now in her third and final career helping to facilitate growth and healing for others. With you as the expert in your own experience, Rachael works to build a collaborative partnership based on acceptance, compassion, empathy, and trust providing counseling, coaching, neurofeedback, and play therapy services to children, adolescents, parents, and adults.
Rachael lives in Wylie with her husband, daughter, two energetic dogs, and has two wonderful adult step-kids. In her free time, she enjoys having fun and meaningful connections with friends and family, watching too much TV, reading a good book, and trying (and sometimes succeeding) in training her dogs with hopes of one day being able to incorporate a therapy dog into the therapeutic process.
