Struggling with depression & identity through childhood, diagnosed with ADHD as an adult— I know about "not reaching [your] potential," and feeling like everything is a struggle.
Beginning in middle school as a volunteer, I gained over 20 years of experience with a range of developmental and other issues before beginning grad school.
Since earning my license, my work has focused primarily on adults and teens with ADHD & ASD, chronic depression, LGBTQIA+ & identity issues.

You've always been capable.
The systems around you weren't built for you.
I'm Rachelle Goldenberg, LCSW — a licensed clinical social worker, neuroaffirming therapist, and a late-diagnosed AuDHD adult. That last part matters, because I know firsthand what it's like to spend most of your life feeling like you're failing at something everyone else finds easy.
Over 26 years in this field, I've learned that how I practice isn't determined by training alone. It's shaped by understanding that exhaustion, avoidance, emotional intensity, or difficulty focusing often isn't a character flaw—it's information about what your nervous system, body, and environment actually need.
At Swift Mind Care, I focus my work to serve neurodivergent adults navigating ADHD, autism, sensory processing differences, and the quiet grief of a late diagnosis. If you've spent years wondering why the world felt so much harder for you than it seemed to for others, you're in the right place.

I am so glad that you are here seeking the wellness that you desire and deserve. I have worked in this field a long time. Having received my MSW from Cal Poly Humboldt, the course of study focused on rural and Indigenous communities and was both solution-focused and strength based.

Hi, I’m Dr. Afarin Rajaei (she/her), a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a passion for helping individuals and couples navigate life’s challenges with clarity, compassion, and purpose. In my 10 years in therapy, my approach has evolved to be warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices, drawing from narrative therapy, systemic thinking, and the Gottman Method.
Whether you're coping with anxiety, relationship stress, identity shifts, or life transitions, I provide a space where your experiences are validated and your goals are honored. Together, we’ll uncover your inner strengths, address barriers, and co-create strategies for growth and healing. I work from a trauma-informed, culturally sensitive lens and bring deep experience in supporting people from diverse backgrounds, including immigrants and those navigating intergenerational dynamics.
Clients often tell me they feel seen and understood in our work together—and that therapy with me helps them reconnect with their voice, values, and vision for life. If you’re seeking a therapist who balances insight with actionable change, I’d be honored to walk alongside you on your journey.

You deserve care that is thoughtful, evidence-based, and deeply personalized.
My approach is collaborative and holistic. I look beyond symptoms to understand the full picture of your life - including stressors, relationships, medical history, lifestyle, and personal goals. Whether you are seeking medication management, diagnostic clarity, or a more integrative approach to healing, we will create a plan tailored specifically to you.
Clients often describe my style as compassionate, thorough, and grounded. I believe in clear communication, shared decision-making, and ensuring you feel informed and empowered about your treatment options. My goal is not simply symptom reduction - it is helping you restore balance, confidence, and a meaningful quality of life.
If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to begin, you do not have to navigate it alone. Together, we will build a path toward emotional stability, mental clarity, and overall wellness.
