Franklynn Bartol
Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Qualifying), MSc, MA
I work with many queer and transgender clients. Although my lived experiences as a non-binary and queer person will help me empathize with you, I place high importance on attending to intersectionality and individuality in each person's experiences. Before training as a therapist, I worked in LGBTQ+ spaces as a peer support worker and studied Gender Studies in grad school. These experiences have helped me gain a wide appreciation for the diversity of issues, traumas, barriers, joys, chosen family, and relationships that exist in our communities. I'm kink and sex worker positive and am comfortably familiar with ethical non-monogamy relationship styles.

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.

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.

Kai DeMaeyer - Talk with Kai - Intimacy and Identity
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP (Qualifying)
Queer and trans clients shouldn't need to spend therapy time explaining their lives to someone who's still catching up. I'm queer and nonbinary myself, and I work with 2SLGBTQ+ clients on identity, relationships, family, sexuality, and the specific kind of exhaustion that comes from navigating a world not built for you. This is a practice where you can take that particular weight off.
