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.

Tanya Beach
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP (Qualifying)
Recognizing and affirming the unique experiences, challenges, and strengths of the 2SLGBTQI+ community is essential as many in the community face issues such as discrimination, internalized stigma, family rejection, and struggles with identity or coming out. These challenges can impact mental health, leading to feelings of isolation, anxiety, or depression. My role is to provide a supportive, non-judgmental space where individuals can explore their identities, process difficult emotions, and begin to heal from trauma. It's crucial to approach these issues with cultural humility and sensitivity while helping clients build resilience and feel empowered to live authentically. Book a free 15-minute consultation with me to see if I’m the right fit for you.

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.
