Hailey Goldberg
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker (MSW), DBT-Linehan Board of Certification, Certified Clinician™
I am committed to providing a safe, affirming, and non-judgmental space for 2SLGBTQIA+ clients. I support individuals exploring gender identity, sexual orientation, relationships, self-acceptance, and the impact of minority stress, discrimination, or family rejection. My approach is grounded in respect, curiosity, and cultural humility, recognizing that every person's experience is unique. As a neurodiversity-affirming therapist, I also understand the importance of considering the intersection of identity, neurotype, culture, and lived experience. Whether you are questioning, coming out, navigating a transition, or simply looking for a therapist who will meet you with warmth and affirmation, I strive to create a space where you can show up authentically and feel genuinely understood.

LGBTQIA2S+ folks have struggled so much to feel love, acceptance, and support on individual, social, and global scales. Our communities have faced so much violence.

Whether you're struggling to feel a part o the queer community, struggling to come out, struggling to be accepted by family, or just needing a therapist that "gets it," we can work through this together.

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.

Nathan Kretzschmar
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Therapy can be a place to explore identity, relationships, belonging, shame, family dynamics, spirituality, and the impact of societal stress without having to shrink or explain yourself. I offer an affirming, respectful space for LGBTQ+ clients, while remaining transparent about the areas where another provider may offer more specialized lived or clinical expertise.
