Donna McLean
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, BA Honours (Psychology), MSW, RSW
I am a cisgender female with experience working with people in the LGBTQ+ community. I am a compassionate and accepting listener and make an effort to ask questions so I can understand your experience, rather than assume. While I am familiar with common challenges LGBTQ+ people may have, I also believe we are each unique and have our own experience. I will work with you to identify your goals and mutually agree on the therapeutic approach that works for you.

Viewpoint Calgary Psychological Services
Psychologist, RPsych
Navigating a world that wasn't built with your identity in mind can be exhausting. When you constantly face minority stress, societal stigma, or the uncertainty of coming out, simply being your authentic self can feel like a daily act of endurance. You shouldn't have to explain, defend, or justify who you are to receive compassionate, effective care.
At Viewpoint Psychological Services in Calgary, our clinical team offers a warm, fully affirming, and confidential space dedicated to the LGBTQIA2S+ community. We recognize that your identity is a source of strength, not something to be fixed or questioned. Using inclusive, evidence-based therapy, we tailor our support to your unique lived experience so you can feel completely seen, valued, and supported.
Together, we’ll help you:
- Explore & Celebrate Identity: Navigate questions around gender identity, sexual orientation, and self-expression in a space strictly free from assumptions or judgment.
- Navigate Minority Stress: Process the heavy impacts of discrimination, invalidation, or family dynamics while building sustainable personal resilience and safety.
- Cultivate Pride & Deep Well-Being: Strengthen healthy communication in relationships, navigate community connections, and foster a grounded sense of self-acceptance and confidence.
You deserve a space where you can let down your guard and thrive exactly as you are. Let’s partner together to help you step out of survival mode and build a life filled with pride, connection, and joy.
