Originally from the Bay Area, Rachel grew up in the small town of Forest Knolls, a close-knit community hidden within the hills of Marin County.

From a young age, Rachel loved to cook alongside her father who was a professional chef. For a portion of her early years, their family owned a restaurant. This was her first taste of culinary culture – which she would later revisit in life.

After graduating college with a degree in journalism, she began reporting at a local news station, where she solidified her writing skills and developed as a well-rounded storyteller.  

Rachel is an avid home chef. She feels most comfortable in the kitchen cooking delicious meals for the people she loves. Wanting to share that love, Therapy Kitchen was born.  To see more of Rachel’s published work, you can visit RachelMarty.com
