Ekta Abhay Lather
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
LGBT issues encompass a wide range of topics related to the rights, experiences, and challenges faced by individuals in the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender community. Key issues include the fight for equal marriage rights, anti-discrimination protections in various aspects of life such as employment, housing, and healthcare, and the ongoing struggle against stigma and violence. Additionally, there are unique challenges for LGBTQ+ youth, including mental health concerns and the need for acceptance in schools and communities. Advocacy and education play crucial roles in promoting understanding and acceptance, fostering an inclusive society where everyone can live authentically and without fear of persecution. Openness, dialogue, and allyship are vital in supporting the rights and dignity of LGBTQ+ individuals.

Kyle Gurr
Counsellor/Therapist, M.Ed. Counselling Psychology
Accepting New Clients. My goal as a Provisional Psychologist is to build an emotionally safe, meaningful, and powerful relationship with you, so that you can best understand yourself in a way that can change your life. Counselling is all about developing an awareness of yourself and what has happened in your life, then being able to use this awareness to produce change in your life. I strongly believe in your capacity for positive change, and I can offer support and guidance as you learn to heal and grow from your trauma.
In southern Alberta, queer populations often struggle to find support that best suits their needs. I work largely within the LGBTQIA+ community within Lethbridge, and I find this to be one of the most fulfilling parts of my job. If you are a queer person who is looking for a counsellor and wanting to work with a queer therapist, please feel free to reach out to me and we can discuss how I can best support you in your counselling journey!
