Bianca Uguccioni
Registered Psychotherapist, MSc, RP
Social stigma and oppressive narratives can significantly impact LGBTQ2IA+ folks, be a significant source of stress and anxiety, and lead to other mental health challenges. As a therapist working with individuals facing issues related to their experiences as part of the LGBTQ2IA+ community, I seek to provide a safe and inclusive space to explore your thoughts and feelings. Additionally, I strive to provide a space where you can better understand your unique experiences and how you might be impacted by oppressive systems and narratives and provide you with the opportunity to explore your strengths and work towards healing. Book a free consultation to explore if we are a good fit.

Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Registered Psychotherapist), Diploma TIRP, member CAPT
I identify as queer. I don't have a monopoly on "getting:" it, not in the least, but I will promise to listen and strive to understand what your experience is. I will strive to relationally "be with" you as I help you process experiences of discrimination, trauma or simply the ups and downs of events and relationships of daily life,

New Moon Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MACP, MSW, RSW, RP, RP(Q)
People who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, or other gender or sexual minorities often experience challenges that cis-gendered and heterosexual folks do not. These challenges may impact family, work, and social and intimate relationships. These include:
- Coming out: considering, preparing and processing
- Self-love and self-acceptance
- Processing related traumas: ie. bullying, discrimination, oppression, and homophobia
- Navigating complex family dynamics
- Exploring gender and sexual identity
- Exploring gender identity and sexual identity while in a relationship
- Career and workplace challenges
- Dating and marriage
- Body image concerns related to transitioning and gender identity
- Integrating cultural and religious identities
- Exploring polyamory, sex and kink
- Sexual health concerns/HIV/serodiscordant relationships
We also support family members who want to support their loved one and to process and accept their loved one's gender and sexual identity.
At New Moon Psychotherapy we understand the unique difficulties that come with diverse identities and intersections. Our therapists have specialized training and some have lived experience in the LGBTQ2S+ community. This offers a unique perspective and affirming, inclusive, and stigma-free support. We value the diversity of human identities and the fluidity of sexual and gender expression.
