Hi, I’M Aubrey Rainbow.

I want to help you reach your goals without losing yourself in the process.

As an Art Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor, and Clinician trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS), I support high-achieving adults in the DC Metro area rediscover their needs, release perfectionism, and master the art of saying no.
