Michelle Labine
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Counselling Therapist, AASECT Certified Sex Therapist
I offer affirming therapy for LGBTQIA+ individuals and couples navigating identity, relationships, sexuality, life transitions and personal growth. Alongside my clinical training, I bring lived experience that helps inform my understanding of the importance of authenticity, connection and belonging. Therapy provides a space to explore your experiences openly, strengthen self-acceptance, and build a life that feels aligned with who you are.

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.

North Star Therapy-- Cleo Haber
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
We value authenticity and seek to help our clients settle into their healing journey without judgement. We have experience working with clients who are exploring their sexual identity, gender, navigating new relationships, or struggling to thrive in a heteronormative world. We aim to facilitate a safe exploration of your emotions, experiences and thoughts, as we know the value of being heard, seen and witnessed. In psychotherapy, we may explore issues pertaining to family, community, safety, identity, self-acceptance, and living life outside the mainstream narrative.

Transforming Emotions
Psychologist
Sometimes, it just feels important to work with someone who gets it. As a Gen-Xer who came out in my 20s, it is important to me to lead a queer positive team. At Transforming Emotions, all of our therapists are queer positive. Whether you are questioning your sexuality or gender identity, working on coming out to loved ones, or are just living your life and wanting to work with a therapist who doesn’t make more of your queerness than you do, we’re here for you. We welcome all members of the 2SLGBTQIA+. Book your free consultation now to help us find the right therapist for you.

Online in Halifax, NS Nova Scotia (Online Only)
Halifax is Atlantic Canada's largest city and a hub for universities, the military, and ocean-tech industries, creating a therapy community serving students, naval personnel, and knowledge workers navigating the pressures of high-achieving careers in a smaller city. Dalhousie University and Canadian Forces Base Halifax generate distinct demand for therapists who specialize in academic stress, military trauma, and the particular challenges of military family life. Nova Scotia Health provides public mental health services, with a private therapy community serving the South End, Bedford, and Dartmouth. Halifax's relatively small size means specialist therapist availability can be limited in some areas, and telehealth has become especially important for accessing care across Atlantic Canada.
