LGBT Issues
Josiane Mapplebeck
Counsellor/Therapist, PhD, MEd, RCT-C, CCC
I am a queer identifying woman (pronouns she/her/hers), and I am committed to providing inclusive, compassionate care to my community. Growing up queer in Nova Scotia was difficult and there were few mental health resources available. My experiences have inspired me to become a therapist who could provide high quality, informed support to the 2SLGBTQIA+ community. I have training in gender-affirming care, and support many transgender and gender-diverse clients. I am also a poly affirming therapist.
You may be looking to explore gender identity or sexual identity. You may be struggling with how your family interacts with your identity. Or you may just feel more comfortable working with a queer therapist.
Wherever you may find yourself in this journey, I will create a safe, non-judgemental space where you are accepted and honoured. I will support you in navigating life’s intricacies with awareness, presence, openness, and transparency.

As a way to give back to my community, I have limited sliding scale spots reserved exclusively for 2SLGBTQIA+ children, youth & young adults (ages up to 22). Please feel to contact me to inquire.

Aaron Chin
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MA, RCC
When working with LGBT issues, I like to start with some mindfulness around the issue to gain a deeper understanding of the experience, from here there are many options, and I rely of the client's wisdom to guide me.

We believe in the power of community care and strive to create a welcoming and inclusive environment where clients feel seen, heard, and valued for who they are.
Through a combination of relational therapy, somatic techniques, and trauma-informed care, we guide clients in navigating issues related to gender identity, sexual orientation, coming out, family dynamics, and societal challenges. We recognize the importance of addressing the intersectionality of identities and experiences within the LGBTQIA+ community and work to empower individuals to embrace their authentic selves and lead fulfilling lives.
Our practice is grounded in the belief that everyone deserves to feel accepted, supported, and validated in their journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance. We are passionate about fostering resilience, healing, and empowerment within the LGBTQIA+ community, and we are committed to providing affirming and compassionate care that honors the unique experiences and identities of each individual who walks through our doors.
