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.

Julie Thomason | BC Therapy Co. | Sex Therapy & Supervision
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC-ACS, PhD Candidate Clinical Sexology
Are you looking for a therapist who truly understands and welcomes you as you are? If you identify as LGBTQIA2S+ or fall within the GSRD (Gender, Sexuality, and Relationship Diversity) category, you're welcome here. I bring both lived and clinical experience to this work, along with advanced and ongoing training in sex therapy. I support people across the full range of gender identities, sexual orientations, and relationship structures, including those who are ethically non-monogamous or kinky, as they navigate mental health, trauma, ADHD, sexuality, and relationships. I have openings right now and would love to hear from you.

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.

Julie Chang, Flourishing Hearts Psychotherapy & Counselling Services Inc.
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor
Navigating transitioning and self-questioning can be overwhelming. The fear and hesitation of making a decision that may have biopsychosocial repercussions are understandable and deserve validation - let me support your self-exploration and learn with you more about your unique self 🙂

Chris Graham
Psychologist, Registered Psychologist
I enjoy working with folks who are curious to explore their gender identity and expression, curious about transition, or contemplating their sexuality. I have worked with folks as they consider transitioning, provided referrals for folks to begin hormone replacement therapies and gender affirming surgeries, and made sense of the way gender works for them. I have enjoyed holding space for folks considering their sexuality identities, making sense of the types of sex they would like to have and the identities they would like to hold.
