About
Hello I am Rachel Pergolini (she/her), and I am a Registered Counsellor. I offer a holistic and intuitive approach to counselling, exploring the root causes of mental health issues, by individually tailoring psychological theories to the person. I tailor this from a person-centred lens. I have a compassionate and warming approach when working with people. I believe that therapy needs to address all aspects of a person (mind, body, and spirit), to support individuals in developing a deeper awareness and understanding of themselves to work through any personal difficulties.
Due to my background in the field, I am passionate and motivated in working with diverse range of people. I aim to create an inclusive and trusting therapeutic relationship, as I hold this to be the essential part of counselling.
Throughout my experience as a counsellor, I have worked with a range of people who have experienced trauma, substance use, anxiety/ depression, and interpersonal difficulties as well as other hardships.I am an ally and strong advocate for the LGBTIQA+ community. I intend to always make my sessions a safe/comfortable place, where one can truely be themseleves
