Bio
Rachelle (they/she) is a Biracial, Queer, Neurodivergent counsellor and registered social worker, who is eager to work alongside folks, co-creating safety within their healing journey. The past eight years in the mental health and social work fields have deepened Rachelle’s passion for supporting individuals and relationships from an anti-oppressive, sex positive and trauma-informed lens.
Offering services in Vancouver, BC on stolen xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) land, Rachelle specializes in supporting individuals in the 2SLGBTQIA+, Neurodivergent and Disabled communities, as well as racial and cultural identity development. She is honoured to hold space for those who have experienced severe trauma (sexual, gender-based, racialized, workplace, systems, and healthcare) and those who witness trauma in helping professions. They also support adults and youth struggling with burnout, major life transitions, self-criticism/shame, as well as racial and cultural identity development.
Rachelle's approach is emotion focused, somatic, IFS/parts and attachment based. Rachelle's holistic counselling style invites folks to explore their unique stories and experiences, drawing upon their wisdom and strength within vulnerability. You can expect Rachelle to show up in session with authenticity and humility, honouring the therapeutic relationship. From a lens of intersectionality, she looks to work alongside the multiply marginalised and those looking to reclaim their right to take up space.
For couples & non-traditional/privately defined relationship structures:
Rachelle is delighted to work with individuals, couples, and folks in relationships of all shapes. She looks forward to creating a sex-positive space; warmly welcoming folks who are interested/exploring or engaged in polyamory, monogamy, non-monogamy, sex work, and kink-centered relationships.
“We do not live single issue lives” –Audre Lorde
Words from Rachelle
Hi to all the lovely humans looking to start or continue therapy and wanting to see if I could be a good fit. I want to acknowledge the strength it takes to enter therapy and deconstruct beliefs that no longer serve you, or have been imposed on you by society. My goal is to help folks rediscover the power in their vulnerability, and the fulfilment in seeing one's experience reflected and honoured in another, allowing people to better understand themselves and their communities. Within a non-judgmental space, I work to reconnect people to the parts of themselves that they feel discomfort in or are disconnected from. In sessions I help strengthen connections and healing by inviting folks to allow self-compassion, empathy and new perspectives into their lives.
If you are someone who has ever felt like they don’t belong, can’t keep up, or have felt shame or guilt for your self-expression, experiences or interests, we may be a good match.
When they’re not working, they enjoy climbing and exploring the outdoors with their dog, as well as reading, rewatching comfort shows and working on whatever craft has grabbed my attention at the time.
Image Description: Rachelle is looking at the camera gently smiling. They have shoulder length curly black hair that is parted down the middle. They wear a v-neck, knit, sleeveless shirt, a necklace, and blue jeans. Their nose ring and arm tattoos are visible in the photo. They are standing in front of green foliage.
