Welcome! I’m glad you’re here.

Hello, I’m Rachael Allen, MA, Registered Associate Professional Counselor, QMHP (she/her). My counseling style is person-centered: I meet you where you are and focus on what feels most important in the moment. Together, we’ll work through the places you feel stuck, uncover root issues, and build practical skills so you can feel more in control of your life.

I support individuals navigating anxiety, depression, self-esteem, identity exploration, life transitions, grief and loss, relationship concerns, LGBTQIA+ experiences, addiction, suicidal thoughts, and the stress of daily overwhelm. I believe healing happens in collaboration, and I’m committed to creating an affirming, nonjudgmental space for people of all backgrounds and identities.

Before becoming a counselor, I served as Dean of Students at a naturopathic medical university, where I guided students through growth and challenge. That experience deepened my passion for working more closely with individuals, leading me to counseling. As a queer, cisgender woman, artist, and mother, I bring compassion, creativity, and respect for diversity into my work.

In therapy, I draw on mindfulness, somatic awareness, creativity, and connection to nature. I see these practices as reminders that transformation is always possible. If you’re looking for a counselor who values authenticity, collaboration, and curiosity, I’d be honored to walk alongside you on your healing journey.
