Relationship Services

Our relationship services are welcoming of everyone including those who are queer, straight, polyamorous, non-monogamous, monogamous, kinky, and non-traditional.

As anti-oppressive practitioners, our approaches consider the impact of things like attachment trauma, power dynamics, cultural values, existing mental health needs, and other areas that are important to those seeking the services. Since dominant relationship counselling frameworks have primarily been developed with straight, monogamous relationships in mind, you may find that our professionals draw on non-traditional and modified frameworks that better consider the unique needs of queer relationships when needed.

2SLGBTQ+ Informed Services

Our professionals are trained and experienced in providing support to people who hold a diversity of identities and welcome everyone to access their services. In particular, all of our professionals specialize in providing informed services to people who hold queer and trans identities.  This means that they go beyond fostering an accepting environment by providing services grounded in queer knowledge, history, and values. Our professionals are knowledgeable about processes related to accessing gender affirming healthcare, name changes, gender marker changes, and the often complicated experiences of coming out to family, friends, partners and other important people.

The expertise our professionals bring is rooted in both formal training and lived experience as queer community members. Our cultural competency comes from being active members in our own queer communities.
