Hi, I’m Rachelle (she/her), a sex and relationship therapist with a very colourful bookshelf, a fondness for board games, and my audiobooks always set to 1.5x speed.

My work is grounded in the belief that you are the expert in your own lived experience. I’m here to offer a compassionate, collaborative space where we can explore what feels most meaningful and challenging for you — with curiosity and at a pace that feels right.

I take a holistic and systemic approach, meaning I’m not only interested in your internal world, but also how external forces — like ableism, marginalisation, compulsory sexuality, and capitalist productivity culture — may be impacting your wellbeing and shaping your relationships, identity, or sense of self.

I’m collaborative and values-focused in my approach — supporting clients to connect with their authenticity, strengthen agency, and navigate life’s complexities with intention and care. If something here resonates with you, I’d be honoured to meet and explore how we might work together.
