Rachel Fulford

Rachel Fulford has been working psychodynamically with clients since 2013. She is a graduate of the Centre for Training in Psychotherapy. She works with adult individuals seeking to understand deeper patterns in their psyches which affect their lives. She enjoys working with people in creative fields, or who seek to become more creative, and enjoys various artistic pursuits of her own. Rachel is thrilled to join the Board after serving for over a year on the OSRP’s HST committee, a cause about which she feels passionately.

Prior to becoming a full-time psychotherapist in private practice, Rachel worked for 19 years helping to develop the talents of screenwriters and their series for television. Prior to that, she worked for various not-for-profits. For four years she was honoured to be on the Board of the imagineNATIVE film + media arts festival where, as one of a minority of non-Indigenous Board Members, she worked to support the organization’s mandate as the world’s largest presenter of Indigenous screen content. She was on the Board of the Barbra Schlifer Clinic, and was part of the collective behind The December 6 Fund, a rotating loan fund to support women leaving abusive situations. She worked as a Junior Policy Analyst for the Ontario Advocacy Commission, an arm’s length provincially-funded group with the goal of protecting the rights of frail seniors, people living with disabilities, and psychiatric survivors.

Currently she is also a member of the Canadian Association of Psychodynamic Therapists, Therapists for Equity and Justice, and the Centre for Training in Psychotherapy Alumni Association, for which she has co-facilitated workshops on various topics.
