RACHELLE PEAN

LCSW, Psychotherapist, KAP

Rachelle Péan is a safe space for her inner child and the expression of liberation from her Haitian and Welsh ancestors. She is passionate about extending this space to others in her work: a space where people can liberate themselves at their own pace, learn how to be with the stored energy of trauma in their own bodies, and recover and reclaim their body's intuitive wisdom.

Rachelle got her master's in clinical social work from the Silberman school of social work at hunter, Usui Reiki level II training with Jissel Ravelo, Attachment Focused EMDR training with Laurel Parnell, Hypnotherapy Certified, 200 hour Vinyasa Yoga training with Yoga to the People in NYC, and enough trainings to realize how to get out of the way in session and allow the client's inner healer to take the lead. Psychedelic exploration and learning from her clients have been her biggest teachers on this healing path.

Rachelle leans on her own intuition in sessions, and incorporates the use of ritual, embodiment and breathwork practices, EMDR processing techniques, and hypnotherapy to hold space for her clients in a way that acknowledges the unseen realm and the unheard parts of the client that are ready to come through. She believes the most important tool in a therapy room is the relationship between therapist and client, and how much space there is for the client to practice self trust. This means each session gives room for the mystery of the present moment and trusting what emerges: a cocreation between client and therapist and the love and safety in the room.

Rachelle believes each session can be a space of liberation and social justice by giving plenty of room for the unique expressions each human being encompasses inside, and giving room for how identity impacts our emotional, physical, and spiritual expression in our lives. This means sessions are poly-friendly (welcoming all expressions of relationship dynamics), LGBTQ affirming, sex positive, and the therapy room is the perfect room to bring in racial dynamics and how global events impact each of us individually--and how our individual healing can impact global events.

Rachelle is also a ketamine assisted psychotherapy provider.
