Kai DeMaeyer, Talk with Kai Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP (Q)
Queer and trans clients shouldn't need to spend therapy time explaining their lives to someone who's still catching up. I'm queer and nonbinary myself, and I work with 2SLGBTQ+ clients on identity, relationships, family, sexuality, and the specific kind of exhaustion that comes from navigating a world not built for you. This is a practice where you can take that particular weight off.

Franklynn Bartol
Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Qualifying), MSc, MA
I work with many queer and transgender clients. Although my lived experiences as a non-binary and queer person will help me empathize with you, I place high importance on attending to intersectionality and individuality in each person's experiences. Before training as a therapist, I worked in LGBTQ+ spaces as a peer support worker and studied Gender Studies in grad school. These experiences have helped me gain a wide appreciation for the diversity of issues, traumas, barriers, joys, chosen family, and relationships that exist in our communities. I'm kink and sex worker positive and am comfortably familiar with ethical non-monogamy relationship styles.

Monika Georgieva
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
I believe that as people, we thrive when we fully live out who we are and when we experience connections that are embracing of our unique qualities. I understand that for many, including members of the LGBTQ2A+ community, opportunities for authentic connection and expression are oftentimes denied, minimized, and challenged, at various levels by various systems of oppression. As a therapist, it is my hope to create a safe and welcoming space in which you feel seen, heard, and appreciated so that together, we can explore your experiences and struggles, and help you to feel empowered in your authentic self and relationships. Contact me or book a free consultation if you wish to learn more.

Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you often feel misunderstood, unseen, or pressured to hide parts of who you are? Many LGBTQ+ people grow up in environments where their identity, feelings, or relationships were minimized, invalidated, or discouraged. You may have learned to silence parts of yourself, navigate fear of judgment, or question your worth for being who you are.
These experiences are not a reflection of who you are—they are natural responses to navigating a world that isn’t always safe or accepting. What matters is how you honour your identity and process your experiences now. Together, we can explore your journey, build self-understanding and resilience, and support you in living more authentically—so you can feel more seen, grounded, and lighter in yourself. You are who you are for a reason. Let’s explore why, and what comes next.

James "Jamie" Myslik
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW
I've worked with 2SLGBTQIA+ folks for all of my eighteen-year career and am queer myself. While I've found queerness is rarely the central focus of the work folks want to to, it permeates our lives and often colours the primary issues folks do want to work with (such as our relationships with anxiety, hypervigilence, shame, etc); and with me folks have always appreciated not having to educate their counsellor about queerness.

Hamilton is undergoing rapid transformation from a steel city to an emerging arts, tech, and health-sciences hub, and therapists here frequently work with the tension between a proud working-class identity and the changes brought by gentrification and urban renewal. McMaster University and McMaster University Medical Centre — one of Canada's leading health research institutions — provide institutional mental health resources and an active clinical training ecosystem. The city's significant immigrant population from South Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America drives demand for culturally informed and multilingual therapists. Hamilton's affordability relative to Toronto has made it a destination for those priced out of the GTA, and therapists regularly address the adjustment challenges of relocation and community rebuilding.
