Welcome, I'm Rachael and welcome to my website.
I am a clinical social worker and psychotherapist with over 25 years of experience as a clinician and educator. I am also the founder and owner of New Pathways Therapy Centre in downtown Toronto.
I love what I do and feel more passionate about the work over my years of practice. It is a privilege to work with people and walk with them through their healing process.
People seek out therapy when they are at a crossroads in life and need to make significant changes. Whether you are suffering from anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship issues, low self esteem, loss, illness, parenting challenges, etc., etc., talk therapy can make a difference.
The first step in therapy is to start where you are at. I take the time to understand what brings you to therapy and offer you a safe, non-judgemental, anti-oppressive space to explore these issues.
I specialize in integrative therapy which means I work with a combination of somatic and cognitive approaches to therapy. I am trained in evidence based and cutting edge therapies that are informed by research in neuroscience and understanding the nervous system’s innate ability to heal. The therapies I am trained in and informed by include:
Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy
Sensorimotor (Somatic) Psychotherapy - Level 2
Neurofeedback
Cognitive and Behavioral Therapy
Internal Family Systems Therapy
Buddhist informed psychotherapy
EMDR - In progress
Narrative Therapy
Please explore my website to learn more about how I work.
