Rachel Hawryluk, LCSW

Rachel Hawryluk is a New Jersey Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 24 years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families. She sees clients across the life span, from parents of toddlers who need support with behavior management to adolescents coping with self-esteem concerns, bullying, and family or interpersonal challenges, as well as adults managing life transitions, work and family stressors, and relationship issues.

Her practice emphasizes family systems and the idea that each member contributes to overall family functioning; she often involves multiple family members to strengthen and support the family unit while helping each person find balance. Clinical approaches include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), supportive and strengths-based methods with adolescents and adults, and family-based therapy when working with couples and families.

Rachel focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family problems, and self-esteem, with additional attention to communication problems, forgiveness, and self-love. She aims to create an open, non-judgmental environment where clients feel respected, listened to, and understood, adapting techniques to meet the needs of each individual or family.

Rachel takes pride in helping people recognize and embrace their potential as they move toward more positive and fulfilling futures, and she acknowledges the courage it can take to begin therapy and encourages those who make their well-being a priority.
