Rachelle Moore

improvscience Social Therapeutic Coach

Rachelle Moore, LCSW, joins improvscience as an emotional and professional development coach in improvscience Wellness Spaces. Rachelle grew up in a Black family where there was no conversation of what it was to be Black. When she was excluded or treated differently, Blackness was never acknowledged and created the experience that it was all in her head.

She majored in psychology at Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland Ohio, to discover “what was wrong” with her.  The rise of the Black power movement, meeting other Black activists, passionate about making positive changes in the world, gave her new option for growth. It fueled her desire to become a therapist and help other Black women and men grow and develop emotionally professionally and politically.  Rachelle has a diverse perspective on mental health and wellness given her long career working in psychiatric hospitals and corporate environments. She chooses to practice social therapeutics–a non-diagnostic, humanistic, relational psychology developed by Dr. Fred Newman.
