Riechelle McAllister-Williams

I help children, adults, and families navigate anxiety, emotional overwhelm, trauma, family stress, and life transitions. I support neurodivergent children and late-diagnosed (autistic, ADHD, and twice-exceptional – 2e) with emotional regulation, self-understanding, and coping skills using a strengths-based approach. Many clients I work with struggle with burnout, guilt, people-pleasing, identity stress, or feeling unseen—often shaped by culture, family roles, or high expectations. Through play therapy and trauma-informed care, I help clients build insight, confidence, and healthier ways of relating to themselves and others.

I create culturally responsive, trauma-informed spaces where Black and Latinx clients feel seen and respected. Using play therapy, EMDR-informed work, TraumaPlay®, somatic, mindfulness, and parts-based approaches, I support regulation, self-expression, and healing while honoring culture, identity, and lived experience.

To get started, clients can reach out through my contact form on my website to request services. From there, we’ll schedule a brief consultation to discuss your concerns, goals, and determine if we’re a good fit. If we decide to move forward, I’ll guide you through the intake process and schedule your first session.
