About me

My practice
Hello, I'm Rachel. At heart, I am an Arts therapist. I infuse curiosity and creativity with my therapy approach, offering counselling with an artistic twist, couples work with a creative couple therapy approach, and hypnotherapy with an arts component. I am deeply passionate about guiding individuals and couples on their journey to healing and self-discovery. With over a decade of experience, I've learned that our paths to wellness are as unique as we are, constantly evolving and growing.

In my practice, I combine the gentle power of Arts Therapy with the transformative potential of creating a space where your creativity and emotions can freely express and heal. I understand that every person and every relationship is unique, and I tailor our sessions to meet your individual needs and goals.

My journey in therapy has been enriched by diverse experiences, including a meaningful 2.5 years working in Cambodia. This international experience has deeply influenced my approach, bringing a breadth of understanding and compassion to the challenges faced by individuals and couples from all walks of life.

Educationally, my background spans from a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Maryland to advanced studies in Therapeutic Arts Practice and Couples Therapy in Australia. My commitment to ongoing personal and professional development is also evidenced by my recent accomplishments: a Diploma of Clinical Hypnosis & Strategic Psychotherapy and a Certificate of Attainment in Individual & Group Supervision, reflecting my commitment to providing you with the most effective, innovative, and empathetic care possible.

What makes my practice different is the fusion of creativity with proven therapeutic approaches, set in a calm and nurturing environment. Here, you're not just heard, but truly understood. Whether you're navigating personal challenges, relationship issues, or seeking deeper understanding and connection, I'm here to support and guide you.

Join me in a safe, ego-free space where we can explore, heal, and grow together. Your journey towards a more fulfilling life, filled with compassion, creativity, and insight, starts here.
