My name is Rachael, and I am a Registered Psychotherapist authorized to practise while working toward independent practice with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO), supervised by Michèle Mani. When faced with challenging emotions, spiralling thoughts, or adverse events, it can make finding a way out seem impossible. Finding moments of light, reflecting on experiences, and deepening self-awareness can help us identify and define our preferred paths.
Pulling from the narrative, client-directed, existential and strength-based cognitive-behavioural perspectives, I try meeting clients where they are in their journeys. Integrating holistic and creative considerations, I foster a safe, grounded, and reflective space to support individuals in engaging with self-growth, self-compassion, and self-agency.
My primary goal is to create a safe space for your voice to be respected and heard. If you are interested in connecting with me, please send me an email :)
