She uses various components drawn from somatic practices, play-based practices, Narrative Therapy, Resurgence Theory, and trauma-informed practice to co-create a supportive approach to processing and healing. Richelle has particular interest in supporting youth and young adults who are experiencing anxiety, complex trauma, grief and loss, and needing support navigating the complexities of being a human having a human experience.
As someone who has previously worked within complex systems and understands the harms and moral injuries that can occur in helping work, she is further interested in supporting those who support others and work in helping fields to provide support in navigating situations of vicarious trauma, secondary exposure trauma, and trauma resulting from work experiences.
