Hailey Goldberg
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker (MSW), DBT-Linehan Board of Certification, Certified Clinician™
I am committed to providing a safe, affirming, and non-judgmental space for 2SLGBTQIA+ clients. I support individuals exploring gender identity, sexual orientation, relationships, self-acceptance, and the impact of minority stress, discrimination, or family rejection. My approach is grounded in respect, curiosity, and cultural humility, recognizing that every person's experience is unique. As a neurodiversity-affirming therapist, I also understand the importance of considering the intersection of identity, neurotype, culture, and lived experience. Whether you are questioning, coming out, navigating a transition, or simply looking for a therapist who will meet you with warmth and affirmation, I strive to create a space where you can show up authentically and feel genuinely understood.

LGBTQ+ Issues
Chris Graham
Psychologist, Registered Psychologist
I enjoy working with folks who are curious to explore their gender identity and expression, curious about transition, or contemplating their sexuality. I have worked with folks as they consider transitioning, provided referrals for folks to begin hormone replacement therapies and gender affirming surgeries, and made sense of the way gender works for them. I have enjoyed holding space for folks considering their sexuality identities, making sense of the types of sex they would like to have and the identities they would like to hold.

There is plenty of scientific research providing evidence that there are variations among people that can’t be determined by their genitalia. Humanity is a continuum and I will not judge you for not conforming to the binary defaults. Know that you will always be safe to be yourself with me.

I address LGBT issues with an affirming, identity-centered lens to validate clent's experiences of gender, sexuality and the unique challenges they may face in a heteronormative or cisnormative world.

Calgary's economy is closely tied to the energy sector, making residents particularly vulnerable to the psychological effects of economic downturns and job uncertainty. The city has a young, ambitious professional demographic with growing mental health awareness, and therapists here frequently address anxiety, burnout, relationship stress, and career-related identity challenges. Calgary also has a growing and diverse immigrant population, with many therapists offering culturally informed care for newcomers navigating settlement stress and identity transitions. Alberta Health Services provides a foundation of public mental health care, with a substantial private practice community serving the inner city and surrounding communities.
