Reaching out for support can be difficult—I commend you for the courage to see what therapy can offer! As a person of colour and member of the LGBTQ+ communities, I have lived experience and special insight into what it’s like to navigate the unique challenges that come with intersectionality. I have a background in working with sexual health, resilience, wellbeing and challenges that uniquely affect intersecting persons of colour, gender and sexuality. I’m grateful to have supported many folx who went through a difficult time in their life, dealt with a mental health concern, or wanted to explore more about themselves.

I specialize in men's mental health, however, I work with a diverse group of clients including, women and those who identify as being Black, Indigenous, Person of Colour (BIPOC), and LGBTQ+ communities.
Workplace Stress and Trauma Specialist. Do you feel like you haven’t achieved much? Feel overburdened, have low motivation, lack of excitement and experience self-doubt? When you become upset, it causes relationship issues, and you become distant from your friends and family. You have difficulty concentrating and focusing because you worry about the future. You are overwhelmed with thoughts related to your self-image, so you avoid asking for help. You question yourself, “this can’t be happening to me” and it causes tunnel vision, avoidance, and procrastination that impacts your personal and professional growth.

I offer therapy from a queer-affirming lens and am open to diverse spiritual and cultural backgrounds.
When working together, you will find that instead of focusing on whether something is good or bad, I will encourage you to ask: How is this serving me? Is it moving me towards a value-based life or is it keeping me stuck? I want to be in your corner as you work towards a life that is value-based for you and of personal meaning. With non-judgement, compassion, and genuine curiosity, I will skillfully maintain a space that is comfortable and safe for you to be authentically you and share your story.

As a bi-cultural, immigrant, queer parent and survivor of sorts, I practice cultural humility with a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive lens.
It can feel exhausting to keep pushing through when anxiety, stress, or relationship struggles weigh you down. You deserve a space where judgment is replaced with acceptance - to get to know & embrace your authentic self & begin meeting your needs. Life's challenges aren't meant to be faced alone, and if you're here, you may have already noticed that avoiding your feelings hasn't been working. This is where I come in. Here, individuals & partners are invited to truly FEEL, guided by my commitment to fostering curiosity, understanding, well-being & joy.

As a counsellor, the thing that brings me the greatest joy is witnessing clients transition from unease to tranquillity.
Life is short yet long; sometimes, happiness feels fleeting, and most of the time, we face various challenges: a family of origin, academic pressure, romantic relationships, marriage, parenting, career anxiety, illness, grief, life transitions, etc. When facing these big and small "hurdles," do you also find yourself pulled by different voices within, in need of a place where you can be seen and heard? Fate may play tricks on us, but who knows if this is not an opportunity for growth? I am willing to create a safe, warm space where we can listen to those voices, understand our different needs and find meaning in our experiences.

My experience as part of the 2S LGBTQ+ community and background in creative arts gives me a unique perspective and toolset to work with.
Having the right therapist to talk to and collaborate with on your goals, challenges, and emotional turmoil can help put things into perspective and create a plan for success. It can be challenging to navigate the world in the face of oppression, disability, stigma, and other barriers to success. My therapy draws on inner strengths and creative expression to manage complex thoughts and emotions, and increase feelings of empowerment. I emphasize meaning-making, the importance of self-efficacy, and perceived control of experiences in the healing process from cognitive, somatic, and social-constructivist perspectives.

I take an integrative approach to therapy, meaning I draw from a variety of therapeutic styles to create a personalized experience that works for you. I favour experiential modalities like Internal Family Systems (IFS)/parts work, which helps us explore and understand the different parts of you that may have conflicting needs or desires—for example, one part may long for love while fears commitment. By working with these parts, we can reduce inner conflict and foster more balance and self-compassion. Alongside IFS, I incorporate practical and grounded tools from cognitive modalities.

LGBTQ+ Counsellors
Do LGBTQ-affirmative therapists receive special training?
Yes. Many therapists who practice LGBTQ-affirmative therapy have completed specialised training, either during their degree programme or as continuing education, to learn the core principles of affirmative therapy and how to best support their LGBTQ clients; some have received certifications in LGBTQ-affirmative therapy. Prospective clients should inquire as to a clinician’s background and training to ensure a good fit.
Why might I want to see an LGBTQ-affirming or LGBTQ-friendly therapist?
Queer and gender-non-conforming individuals frequently experience bias and marginalisation in day-to-day life. Working with a therapist who understands these unique challenges, as well as accepts and affirms their identity, can help LGBTQ clients feel safe and supported during therapy—allowing them to better navigate their relationships, mental health, and anything else that they wish to explore during therapy. It is important to note that many therapists can be effective in their work with LGBTQ+ individuals, even in the absence of specific training or background knowledge. The most important component in therapy is the alliance between therapist and client, and this alliance can exist between individuals with very different backgrounds.
How can I find an LGBTQ-friendly therapist?
You may wish to inquire about a therapist’s expertise with your specific challenges or concerns—depression, for example, or relationship strife—as well as their past experiences treating LGBTQ+ clients. Prospective clients may also ask whether a therapist has obtained additional training and/or certification in LGBTQ-affirmative techniques.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience with LGBTQ issues?
Prospective clients should feel empowered to directly ask therapists whether they have received training or been certified in LGBTQ-affirming therapy; competent therapists will be happy to explain their educational background and preferred approach(es) to help a client find the best match for them. Clients may also wish to ask how a therapist has treated clients with their particular challenges in the past and what they expect treatment to look like.
Are all the therapists listed in the LGBTQ directory themselves members of the LGBTQ community?
While therapists may choose to disclose their sexual orientation or gender identity in their profiles, the LGBTQ directory features not only those who have shared this information but also those who assert specialised training or experience in providing support to queer individuals, couples or families.
