Melissa Letourneau
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
My approach is grounded in authenticity, trust, and often humour. I believe you have the wisdom to navigate life’s challenges and I strive to help empower you to facilitate change in therapy. Therapy can provide a collaborative space to explore your experiences as part of the LGBTQIA+ community. I work with individuals, couples, children and families offering a free consultation to ensure we are a good fit. I carry a systemic lens, exploring the way culture, community and family shape our experiences and aspirations. I am committed to strength-based and anti-oppressive practice in my work. I recognize the importance and responsibility I have as a therapist, to address the systemic inequalities impacting clients in their lives.

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.
