Rachel Walpert Fairbrother, Registered Psychologist

Part-time Private Practice

Virtual and Telehealth Appointments Only


I practice from a client-centered, trauma-informed perspective, meaning I view the client as the expert of their own experiences. I encourage clients to share their experiences, explore different perspectives, and tap into their personal intuition in therapy. I ask questions to help explore thoughts, feelings and behaviours that may be causing distress in our lives. The treatment modalities I draw from are Humanistic approaches such as Attachment-Based, Emotion-Focused, Anti-Oppressive/ Culturally Sensitive, Narrative and Existential practices.

Specialties:

  • Trauma      (Childhood, Family/Intergenerational, Residential Schools, Critical      Incidents).

  • Anxiety,      Stress, Burnout

  • Perinatal      Mental Health: Pregnancy/Postpartum/Transition to Parenthood

  • Relationship      Issues (Codependency, Attachment, Conflict, Communication)

  • Self-Harm      & Suicidal Ideation
