Shari Derksen
Psychologist, R. Psych.
Connection and sexual expression are key to our existence as humans. I support clients in releasing shame, fears, patterns, and blockages that get in the way of their relationships, intimacy, and sexual expression in a non-judging environment that is LGBTQ and polyamory/LS Lifestyle/kink affirming. Find your voice in relationships and freedom in sexual expression. Create the life that you want.

Carl Conradi
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC, MSc, MBA
My name is Carl Conradi, and I’m a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) based in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. I’m an integratively-trained counsellor, which means that I draw upon three different therapeutic approaches – existential, cognitive-behavioural (CBT), and psychodynamic – to help support processes that are warm, exploratory, philosophical, and totally unique to each client.
My particular approach to counselling is highly relational and non-pathologising. I believe that all psychological experiences are instructive – even those that feel unbearable – and that within the context of the bond that you and I will create together, you’ll be invited to explore new ways of thinking, feeling, and being in the world.
I work with adult and adolescent individuals who are experiencing a wide array of psychological challenges, including (but not limited to): attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), anxiety, depression, loneliness, men’s issues, problematic anger, obsessive-compulsiveness (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), relationship difficulties, and/or work-related stress. I’m also very skilled at working alongside folks who are navigating major life changes, such as: bereavement, diagnosis, divorce, job insecurity or loss, etc.
I’m a passionate advocate of mental wellbeing within the LGBTQIA+, veteran and first responder, and consensually non-monogamous communities.

Chris Graham
Psychologist, Registered Provisional Psychologist
I believe that meaningful connections are central to our wellbeing and that therapy offers a safer space for exploring and creating such relationships. I believe that such connections can help in embedding wellbeing in our lives and provide the support we need to overcome our struggles. I have experience working with folks facing a number of struggles and experiences, including anxiety, depression, trauma, people of diverse abilities, sex and sexuality, trans and gender diverse care, and intersections between these identities and experiences.
I believe that a healthy connection is a very important part of an effective therapeutic relationship. Book your free 20 minute meet & greet today to see if I am the right fit for you.

Forouz Salari
Registered Social Worker, MA, MSW, RSW
I am a white-passing, Middle-Eastern, bisexual, cis-gender, neurotypical woman and a first-generation immigrant and settler (who came to Canada as a refugee, during childhood).
I’ve also lived through experiences of trauma, displacement, mental illness, divorce, chronic illness and chronic pain.
So, I know what it’s like to feel lost, confused, doubtful, overwhelmed, frustrated, misunderstood, lonely, exhausted, and just not good enough! I know the effort and energy it takes to step into and embrace a journey of self-discovery, healing and growth, not knowing where it might lead. I also know how incredibly transformative it can be!
That must be why you're here too - ready and looking for something in your life to change for the better. I'm here to help!

Julie McLennan
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CCPCPR
Neurodiversity Counsellor and Group Facilitator. I provide counselling, psychoeducation & community for the neurodivergent (people who have always felt 'other' and are looking for answers and support). Understanding your unique presentation of neurodiversity is the first step to understanding yourself and finding your fit in terms of optimal pursuits and environments. Too often we try to change ourselves to fit the environment when it should be the other way around.
