Rachel Loong (she/her) - Counselor, Life Coach - Book Now - Rachel Loong
Rachel is a second-generation Chinese-Canadian who is a certified Life Skills Coach and Wellness Counsellor. As a culturally responsive advocate for BIPOC representation in the mental health field, Rachel understands the unique challenges of navigating minority experiences and multiple cultures. Her personal experience overcoming intergenerational trauma and family estrangement is a driving force behind her commitment to supporting individuals who are embarking on a journey towards acceptance, connection, and belonging.
Rachel promotes human-first, non-pathologizing support that is approachable, practical, and personal. She welcomes clients of all backgrounds into her practice seeking guidance in areas such as family conflict, relationships, attachment, culture, identity, suppression, codependency, people pleasing, perfectionism, burnout, and grief and loss.
Rachel’s background in trauma-informed care allows her to recognize the signs of trauma and how it may be impacting your life. Through a humanistic approach that prioritizes the unique needs and individuality of each person, she integrates evidence-based techniques with guided reflection to invite clients to gain a deeper understanding of themselves and open the door to new possibilities. Supporting the interconnection of the mind, body, heart, and spirit is available for clients that wish to take a holistic view of their healing journey.
It is her passion to cultivate a compassionate environment where clients can feel heard, seen, and supported throughout the process and feel safe to express what is on their mind and heart, with no judgement. Clients are encouraged to come as they are, be their true self and unfold at their own pace. Using new learning and experimentation as a path to growth, Rachel also offers additional tools and resources for clients to feel empowered to navigate life outside sessions. If you are looking for a sincere, informative, and culturally-inclusive counsellor to support you on your journey towards self-discovery, healing, and transformation, Rachel would be honored to hear from you.
