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.

Approach: Affirming, person-centred, trauma-informed and emotion-focused therapy.
I provide a respectful space to explore identity, relationships, belonging, family dynamics, self-acceptance, discrimination, and life transitions. Therapy follows the client's identity and values rather than imposing assumptions.

Somatic Healing Arts, Psychotherapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (qualifying), MA-ExAT
LGBTQ+ individuals often face unique emotional and social challenges that affect both the mind and body, including stress, anxiety, or feelings of disconnection. Approaches like art therapy and sensorimotor therapy engage both body and mind, helping individuals safely explore identity, process emotions, build self-acceptance, and cultivate resilience, empowerment, and a stronger sense of authenticity.

Clayre Sessoms
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC, ATR-BC
Navigating a world built on cisnormative structures means that dealing with LGBTQ+ issues is often an exhausting exercise in daily survival, but therapy should also be a space to cultivate gender euphoria. I arrive at this work with you with my own lived experience as a genderflux, queer femme (she/they). My virtual counselling practice in Vancouver, BC and across Canada offers a deeply affirming, non-gatekeeping space where you never have to translate your identity to be understood. We will work relationally to hold the weight of systemic macro-aggressions, fostering a slow, embodied space of absolute resonance and solidarity.
