Rachel Warner (she/her)

Church Wellesley Counselling and Psychotherapy

About Rachel

I work with clients of all ages with presenting concerns related to anxiety and depression, body issues, career challenges, gender and sexuality-related issues, religious wounds, self-esteem issues, identity issues, and societal pressures. I specifically enjoy working with teens, young adults, and 2SLGBTQ+ folx. I draw from Narrative Therapy, Queer Theory, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Feminist Therapy, Geek Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and Spiritually Integrated Psychotherapy. But what do all these modalities and presenting concerns mean…?

In session, you can anticipate sharing your experiences and being asked to explore your behaviours, feelings, and thoughts about these experiences. Together, we will seek to identify the stories you believe about yourself, your relationships, and the world. We will integrate a strengths-based approach to counselling so we can find exceptions to the problems you are facing and identify personal strengths you can utilize in difficult situations. By identifying personal strengths, you can begin to rewrite your life narrative(s) and find alternative solutions that will contribute to an improved quality of life.

I completed a Bachelor of Arts in Communication Studies and Business from the University of Waterloo and a Master of Arts in Spiritual Care and Psychotherapy from Wilfrid Laurier University. I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) and am currently a member of the Ontario Association of Mental Health Professionals (OAMHP).

Rachel's Information

Cancellation Policy

When you book a session, your clinician reserves their time for you. In the event that you will be unable to keep an appointment, please notify your clinician at least 24 hours in advance, so that someone else may utilize the time. Similarly, when your clinician is unable to keep the appointment with you, they will give you more than a 24-hour notice and rebook to another date and time.

In the case whereby you are unable to provide 24-hour cancellation notice (e.g., you cancel an appointment on the day of the appointment [i.e. the same day] or do not show up for a scheduled appointment), unless for emergency reasons (e.g., medical or family emergencies), you will be charged the fee for your session and payment will be required at your next scheduled session.

Note: Employee Assistance Programs and other insurance-based programs will not reimburse you, the client, for missed appointment costs.
