Manisha Grewal
Counsellor/Therapist, BA (Hons), MA, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
I specialize in supporting LGBTQIA+ clients through an affirming, integrative approach that celebrates your authentic self. Together, we’ll use acceptance and commitment approaches to align with your core values, mindfulness practices to navigate minority stress, and parts work to heal internalized stigma. Cognitive and emotion-focused techniques help challenge negative self-beliefs and process deep feelings, while spiritual/existential approaches honours your unique journey toward self-acceptance. My goal is to provide a safe, empowering space where you can embrace your identity, build resilience, and thrive.

Charlie Young
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC #22791
I'm a queer and trans RCC providing virtual therapy across BC, specializing in gender-affirming care, hormone readiness assessments, and identity exploration. Many people come for transition support and readiness letters; others for trauma, depression, anxiety, BPD, anger, or bipolar — any topic is welcome, and you can bring something specific or start with the sense that something is off and we'll work it out from there. Often our environments don't support us the way we need them to, and I help name that context rather than treating it as a problem arising within you. Sessions are 50 minutes by secure video, longer sessions available, and I'll use your name and pronouns from our first contact. Hormone readiness assessments are $300 — some prescribers require a letter and many in BC do not, so check with yours before booking, and during the free 15-minute consult we'll talk about what brings you to counselling and how I can help.
