No Other Place
You can ultimately feel confident in yourself and secure in your relationships knowing that you are equipped to handle the curveballs life throws at you.
Radically Inclusive Care
Traditional methods of helping people, families, and organizations fall short.
Most of these methods are designed in ways that honor dominant experiences.
We offer something more intimate, more accessible, more inclusive.
Our Philosophy
We believe all people, including Black, Brown, Queer and Trans/GNC people have worth and deserve to experience belonging. We all have the capacity and the right, to be our authentic selves – feeling confident, secure, and fulfilled in our lives, our work, and our relationships.
An identity-affirming, anti-oppressive approach guides our work, taking particular care to consider who you are, all the different parts of your identity and your context, in order to support your growth.
Our Practice
We practice thoughtfully and strategically, actively decolonizing our thinking and our approaches. We value approaches supported by evidence, yet work hard to interrogate them and sensitize them to the needs of our clients. Then apply them with empathy and compassion.
Our discernment positions us to provide an experience that is affirming of who you are and can help you make meaningful and lasting change.
Our Promise
Our practice is designed with you in mind. From the moment you engage us, we want you to receive one message from us- you matter!
We’ve created a place where the needs of people of color and LGBTQ are not an afterthought, but rather at the forefront. We provide a space where all people, from all walks of life can feel safe, comfortable, accepted and valued; a place that feels like your close friend’s home – warm, welcoming, and cozy.

Saying About RHQ
Dr. Bukky is an EXCELLENT facilitator. She kept us engaged virtually for two entire days which is not an easy thing to do.
RHQ Training Attendee
This training truly is a game changer! Helps staff focus on how they are showing up to interactions, particularly conflicts and challenging conversations.
RHQ Training Attendee
Dr. Bukky’s facilitation was absolutely incredible! The 2 days spent with her on zoom were grounding and completely recentered, refocused, and re-energized me for this work.
RHQ Training Attendee
Everyone (not just counseling professionals) should have access to this training!
RHQ Training Attendee

I worked with Elisa at SCAN NY in our preventive services division. Elisa has a diverse set of clinical skills and is both skillful and objective while remaining sensitive to client needs. She was an asset to our agency and will clearly continue to be a major contributor to the field.
RHQ Partner
I had the pleasure of working with Elisa at the Dean Hope Center at Teachers College, Columbia University. Elisa holds herself to high professional standards and posses the best and most important qualities a therapist should have: empathy and the ability to give and receive feedback.
RHQ Partner
I referred clients to Elisa Cameron for group counseling and she was able to help my clients reach their treatment goals quickly and effectively. Elisa maintained a professional and respectful relationship with my clients and they would often report that they found working with Elisa pleasurable, useful and informative.
RHQ Partner
Dr. Bukky was extremely helpful in guiding my daughter at a very challenging time in her life. [Dr.Bukky] spent so much time with my daughter, providing care in a manner we were unable to find in other experts. Dani and I are most grateful for [her] professionalism and personal attention. [She is] truly a gift!
RHQ Therapy Client
[Bukky] helped me immensely, and in so many different ways. I will never regret taking the time to reach out to her, a stranger at first, when I needed it most.
RHQ Therapy Client
Dr. Bukky provides a great balance of empathy and challenge.
RHQ Therapy Client
I have known Bukky for approximately eight years, during which time I have gotten to know her as a colleague, friend, and fellow psychologist. Bukky’s immense ability to connect with and model empathy for others contributes to her effectiveness as an EFT therapist.
