"Rachel fills an extremely important niche in the film industry. Her work on the psychology of character, on creativity and on finding the personal voice helps writers reach deeply inside themselves to become greater writers and to write better scripts. She is one of only three script consultants in the U.S., who I have trained in the "Seger Method. Her insights make her the kind of guide you want leading you through the difficult and joyous pathways of writing."
