About Rachel

A safe space for your healing journey

As a Registered Psychotherapist, I specialize in helping survivors of narcissistic abuse and emotional trauma reclaim their lives and sense of self.

My approach combines evidence-based trauma therapy techniques including somatic therapy, emotion-focused therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy to address both the psychological and physical impacts of abuse. I create a warm, non-judgmental space where you can process your experiences at your own pace.

I understand the unique challenges survivors face, including the self-doubt, confusion, lack of trust in your intuition, and isolation that often accompany narcissistic abuse. Together, we'll work to rebuild your confidence, establish healthy boundaries, and develop the tools you need to thrive.

FAQ

Common questions

Answers to help you feel prepared and informed.

The first session is focused on getting to know you and understanding what brings you to therapy. We'll discuss your history, current concerns, and goals for treatment. This is also an opportunity for you to ask questions and see if we're a good fit. There's no pressure to share more than you're comfortable with—we'll move at your pace.
The duration of therapy varies depending on your unique situation and goals. Some clients find relief in a few months, while others benefit from longer-term support, especially when processing complex trauma. We'll regularly check in on your progress and adjust our approach as needed.
Yes! I offer secure video therapy sessions for clients throughout Ontario. Virtual therapy is just as effective as in-person sessions and offers greater flexibility and convenience. Many clients appreciate being able to attend sessions from the comfort of their own space.
Session fees are discussed during the free consultation. I provide receipts that can be submitted to your insurance provider for reimbursement under "Registered Psychotherapist" coverage. Many extended health plans cover psychotherapy services. I also offer a limited number of reduced-fee spots for those experiencing financial hardship.
Narcissistic abuse can be difficult to identify because it's often subtle and psychological. Signs include chronic self-doubt, feeling like you're "walking on eggshells," being isolated from support systems, and feeling responsible for someone else's emotions. If you're questioning whether your experiences were "bad enough" to be considered abuse, that uncertainty itself is often a sign. We can explore this together in a safe, non-judgmental space.
