Rebecca Bonham
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Canadian Certified Counsellor, MPS, MTS
I am here to support you on your gender and identity journey – whether that means exploring and understanding your own emerging identity; navigating challenges of being authentic within your family, friends, or spiritual community; learning to live out and proud; or navigating the nuances of living in a binary-breaking way. I provide a queer-affirming, safe, and nonjudgmental space for you to be who you are, so that you and your story may be held with compassion, curiosity, and celebration.
