🌿 About R.E.A.C.H. Therapy & Consultation Service R.E.A.C.H. Therapy & Consultation Service is guided by a mission rooted in empathy, compassion, and meaningful self-expression. R.E.A.C.H. stands for Rise & be Empowered – Accept & Commit to Healing, reflecting our belief that healing is relational, ongoing, and deeply connected to dignity, identity, and community. Our counselling and consultation spaces are person-centred and story-informed, honouring each person’s lived experiences, histories, and ways of knowing. We believe people are experts in their own lives, and therapy is a collaborative process that centres consent, choice, and connection. In sessions, individuals and families are supported to explore thoughts, emotions, and relational patterns in ways that feel respectful and empowering. Together, we work to understand patterns that may feel limiting, while nurturing strengths, resilience, and new ways of relating to self and others. Our approaches are grounded in culturally responsive, trauma-informed, and evidence-informed practices, shaped by relational and decolonial frameworks. Rather than focusing only on symptoms, we centre well-being, meaning, and connection. Individuals and families may experience reduced distress and increased clarity, confidence, and capacity to move toward their personal, relational, and life goals. We support people in building tools to navigate emotions, relationships, and life transitions in ways that align with their values, culture, and community contexts. At R.E.A.C.H. Therapy, healing is understood as personal and collective. We honour diverse identities, cultures, spiritualities, and ways of being, and we walk alongside participants in ways that foster empowerment, belonging, and self-determined growth.

NOTE: Not currently accepting new clients. I work with Black and racialized clients who are discontent, distressed, or stuck as a result of molding themselves to fit expectations others have of them and struggle with being themselves in their relationships and other contexts they are a part of. I help you become more grounded and secure in who you are: your authentic selves and self-expression, so that you can cultivate relationships that honour these things with yourself and others. As a Black woman and trained Couple and Family Therapist, I approach therapy relationally and systemically. This means that I pay attention to how your contexts (e.g. society, culture, relationships, etc.)-past, present, and even future- influence your experience in various aspects of your life, including your mental wellbeing and relationships. I work with you to support you in moving from where you are now to where you want be; we examine what might be getting in the way of you reaching that place and how you can navigate these challenges in ways that honour your intersecting identities and values. My approach is grounded in the values I hold around intersectionality and social justice, anti-oppressive and trauma informed practice, humour, and the therapeutic relationship. I am trained in the following and intentionally integrate them in practice: Dialogic Collaborative Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Emotion and Emotionally Focused Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy.

You’ve done everything right. You’ve been kind, reliable, strong. But something inside still aches. You’ve tried to fix it through journaling, meditating, staying busy. You stay close to people who don’t really see you, because being alone feels worse. Deep down, there’s a pain that won’t go away. In therapy, we meet that ache together. We slow down so your body can speak, and your heart can be heard. You don’t have to face your feelings alone. When they are met with care, they can begin to soften. With time, something can take root: A steadiness in your body A clear voice that knows what’s true Boundaries that feel kind and firm A gentleness toward yourself you can finally believe in. In addition to working from an emotion-focused and attachment-focused lens, I draw inspiration from my Jamaican (Maroon) roots, honoring intuition, spiritual wisdom, and tuning into the subtle ways life communicates with us. My work is grounded in listening deeply, holding space for the parts of you that have been overlooked, and helping you feel fully seen and understood.
