Who is Raechelle

About Raechelle

I’m Raechelle Middleton, a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) with 25 years of experience supporting adults, teens, couples, and families. I believe therapy works best when it is rooted in a genuine, meaningful connection where you feel safe, understood, and respected.

My approach is clinically grounded and focused on functional, real-world results. I strive to make you feel at ease immediately, ensuring our time together feels like a productive, strategic conversation rather than a formal clinical interview. I value a straightforward connection where you can be completely yourself, allowing us to move efficiently from emotional insight into the tangible work of integration and growth.

Based on Vancouver Island, I offer remote clinical counselling services across British Columbia and much of Canada. Outside of my work, I value family life and the outdoors, with a long-standing interest in the therapeutic role of animals—a perspective that often informs my holistic view of healing and well-being.
