LGBTQ+ Counselling

Everyone deserves access to quality mental health care. However, finding a therapist who is knowledgeable about the unique experiences of the LGBTQ+/SOGIE community can be challenging.

How I can help

As a psychologist who focuses on working with the LGBTQ+ population, I am dedicated to providing you with a supportive and inclusive space. LGBTQ+ issues being a focus of my practice means that I take trainings, do readings, engage in community events, and receive consultation to best support you. It also means that I know the difference between gender and sexuality, and I won’t struggle to use your pronouns.

Together, we can:

• Navigate the process and potential challenges of coming out

• Explore your gender identity

• Work through relationship and family dynamics

• Work through feelings of shame resulting from negative social attitudes

We can also explore any other topic that brings you to therapy that’s not specifically related to being LGBTQ+, like anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions, all within an affirming and supportive context.

My approach

My approach to therapy is based on creating a collaborative and empowering relationship together. Throughout therapy, we will work towards creating a safe space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment. All of you is welcome here, exactly as you are.
