New Moon Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MACP, MSW, RSW, RP, RP(Q)
We are a team of Registered Psychotherapists and Social Workers who specialize in supporting individuals through effective and research backed trauma, relationship, and sex therapy.
We began as a trauma focused clinic - our team has a solid understanding of the countless small and large ways that trauma impacts us. We work with traumatic stress and related difficulties such as anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD and complexPTSD), addiction, self-harm, and suicide ideation. We support survivors of sexual violence as well as those who have experienced emotional and physical abuse, criminal victimization, bullying, war, and near death experiences.
We've found that as people heal, relationships and intimacy naturally becomes a secondary focus. For this reason we offer family, couples, and sex therapy. We support individuals of all gender and sexual identities and relationship structures.
We respect diversity and differences in opinions, values and attitudes. This is reflected through individualized treatment plans which consider each individuals lived and generational experiences. We strive to provide culturally-sensitive, non-discriminatory, and affirming care to culturally diverse populations and BIPOC, LGBTQ+, neurodivergent, kink and polyamorous communities.
Our goal is to help you break free from your past and rediscover a fulfilling life filled with joy and connection.

Caroline Boutefeu
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
I was a practicing Psychologist in Belgium since 2014. Recently I moved to Canada and am registered with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario.
I have experience managing trauma, depression, anxiety, and addiction among other issues. I work extensively with survivors of childhood sexual abuse and other forms of trauma using trauma focused modalities (those that research shows works when treating the difficulties that you are experiencing).
When I work with clients, I start by understanding your story and goals. I then use this information to tailor a treatment plan to meet your needs. initiate with an in-depth understanding of your story, which is guided by a personalized treatment plan using an array of therapies. Our approach is flexible and informed by your evolving needs, with open communication guiding us toward your healing and personal growth.

Kai DeMaeyer - Talk with Kai - Intimacy and Identity
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP (Qualifying)
You may be here because something in your life or relationships no longer feels workable. Perhaps you are caught in the same conflict with your partner, feeling disconnected from sex or intimacy, questioning parts of your identity, or carrying more pressure than you can comfortably hold. You might still be functioning well on the outside while privately feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or far from yourself.
I work with individuals and couples navigating relationships, intimacy, queer and gender identity, neurodivergence, burnout, grief, chronic illness, trauma, and life transitions. I am queer and neurodivergent, and my practice is queer-affirming, sex-positive, kink-affirming, and welcoming of diverse relationship structures.
My style is warm, direct, and collaborative. I draw from relational, narrative, psychodynamic, attachment-based, Gottman-informed, and somatic approaches. We will look at how patterns developed, what continues to reinforce them, and what they may be costing you now. Therapy can offer a place to understand yourself more clearly, communicate more honestly, and build relationships that feel more connected and sustainable.

Clayre Sessoms
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC, ATR-BC
I know firsthand what it is like to live, move, and survive in a world that was simply not built with our bodies or identities in mind. As a blind therapist with low vision, my practice is informed by a heightened sensory and energetic attunement to movement, vocal expression, and the felt sense of what passes between us online. As a trans, queer, genderflux femme (she/they), I am deeply committed to providing accessible, non-gatekeeping care that actively welcomes your gender euphoria alongside your systemic exhaustion.
In this online therapy space, the burden of translation is completely removed from your shoulders. You do not have to spend our time explaining or justifying the daily impacts of ableism, transphobia, or marginalization; you are met exactly where you are with an immediate, shared resonance. We will work at a pace that respects your boundaries, allowing you to safely unpack your burdens and build a deeper, kinder relationship with your own body. For local clients in the Vancouver area, we can also explore moving our therapy outdoors for walk-and-talk sessions once we have firmly established our therapeutic foundation and connection.

Alison Taylor
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, GIT.Dip, CAPT, CRPO
Joy, connection, and relief are possible even in the darkest of times. I offer an embodied, relational approach to therapy that helps you investigate anxiety, disconnection, and recurring motifs that no longer feel like they are allowing you to fully engage with your life. I spent many years trying to jump straight to a solution, as though I was a problem to be fixed. In my experience, fixing/improving yourself won’t bring you the relief you’re seeking because it bypasses the juicy bits: understanding how you got here, and how you've kept this going for so long. Instead, we explore your present-moment experience (your thinking-feeling-sensing-moving body) to build awareness and self-trust, which makes change and spontaneity possible. I bring a steady, attuned presence, at times a twinkly humour, and a deep respect for how your adaptations have supported you to survive this far, while helping you discover new ways of being that feel more spacious and alive. If you’re looking for therapy that honours your whole self, insists on centering your creativity and humanity, and supports real, lasting shifts, I invite you to reach out for a free consultation.

Ashley Bargent Coaching & Counselling
Registered Social Worker, Associate Certified Coach, ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider MSW, RSW, ACC, ADHD-CCSP
Work is draining the joy from your life. Your confidence is dropping and you’re not sure about this career anymore. Every workday, it’s harder to get out of bed. You’ve considered changing jobs but are scared you’re the problem. The idea of change feels overwhelming because you overthink and don’t know where to start. You long for a job where your strengths will shine and you can live up to your potential. But you aren’t sure if you’ll ever find a place where you belong, especially if you’re grappling with ADHD.
