About Allyson Reich

A Bit About Me

My name is Allyson Reich, and I am a recently retired firefighter that has enjoyed over 24 years in the fire service. I will be switching gears from serving our community to serving the people that serve our community. I want to be the "safe space" for all emergency responders to be able to unpack all that is hindering their lives. I believe that my lived experience in this rewarding career, in addition to my education, will create a unique space where healing can begin.

A Little Bit More About Me

I am a very practical person who believes that you are the subject matter expert about yourself. My role is to support, challenge, and walk alongside you as we work through the things that bring you to the office. As emergency responders, we have a strong drive to suppress and compartmentalize to get the job done, but in the quiet moments after all is said and done, the realities of our work can leave an indelible mark. Together, we can work this out.

About Gus

Gus - Office Dog Extrodinaire!

Gus is a 3 year old Boxer and is fully vaccinated. He has recently passed his Canine Good Neighbour Certification and has aspirations of working as a Hospital Pet Therapy Dog in the very near future. He is often at the office, so please let me know if you are allergic or fearful of dogs so that I can accommodate you safely. He brings a certain kind of unconditional love that only a dog can offer! *Photos taken by Sarah Robar Photography*
