My Approach
My work is grounded in evidence-based psychology and shaped by nearly 30 years of supporting women through heartbreak, separation, and divorce.
I understand that no two experiences are the same. Your history, your relationship, and your emotional patterns all influence how you process loss.
My approach focuses on helping you understand what’s happened, identify what’s keeping you stuck, and begin making meaningful changes.
Not by relying on time alone —
but by giving you a clear, structured way forward.
Whether you’re navigating a recent breakup or still feeling the impact of one from years ago, I’ll help you understand what’s happening and what to do next.

Meet Rachael Reed
Heartbreak Recovery Strategist. Nearly 30 years helping women move forward from heartbreak, separation, and divorce.
Heartbreak isn't just emotional. It changes your brain.
Most women who come to me have already tried everything. Time. Keeping busy. Talking to friends. Telling themselves they should be over it by now.
And yet there they are. Still overthinking. Still replaying conversations. Still asking themselves the same question on repeat: what is wrong with me?
Nothing is wrong with you. That is the first thing I want you to know.
After nearly three decades of working with women through breakups, separations, divorces, and everything in between, I can tell you this with absolute certainty: we do not struggle because we are weak. We struggle because nobody has helped us understand what is actually happening inside us.
I know this because I have lived it too.
Going through my own separation taught me something that years of professional training could not. That understanding the psychology of heartbreak and actually living it are two very different things.
The women who heal fastest are not the ones with the most willpower or the most time. They are the ones who finally understand what is happening inside them and have a clear, structured path to follow.
What I do
I help women make sense of the pain, understand what is happening in their brain and nervous system, and move forward in a way that is not only healthy but ensures they do not repeat the patterns that have already caused them so much pain.
Everything I do is built around your specific situation. Your history, your relationship, your attachment patterns. No two women arrive at heartbreak the same way, and I do not offer a generic approach.
My work is grounded in evidence-based psychology and shaped by nearly 30 years of sitting with women in their most painful moments. Not by relying on time alone. But by understanding exactly what is happening and knowing precisely what to do next.

 A Little About Me...
Rachael Reed, Founder and your Heartbreak Coach.
For nearly 30 years, I’ve supported women through the pain of breakups, divorce, and unrequited love.
And I’ve seen how deeply it can affect every part of your life, your confidence, your sense of self, and your ability to see a way forward.
Replaying conversations.
Trying to make sense of what happened.
Wondering why you can’t seem to move on.
Most people are told to “just give it time.”
But when time doesn’t help, it often leaves you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and questioning yourself.
My work brings together decades of experience in psychology, mediation, and coaching, along with a deep understanding of what heartbreak actually does to the mind and nervous system.
That’s why I developed a clear, structured approach to healing heartbreak.
Because when you understand what’s happening, and have the right support, you can begin to move forward with clarity and confidence.
