Providing In-Person LGBTQIA2S+ Counselling in Vancouver and Virtually Across BC
LGBTQIA2S+ Counselling
At Blue Sky, we are deeply committed to providing inclusive, affirming counselling services that are thoughtfully designed to support the LGBTQIA2S+ community. Our compassionate team of counsellors understands the unique challenges and joys that come with navigating identity, relationships, and personal growth within this community. Here, you’ll find a warm, welcoming space to explore, heal, and thrive.
What to Expect in Counselling
Inclusivity
Our counselling services are created with the LGBTQIA2S+ community in mind, recognizing that traditional approaches may not always reflect the specific needs and lived experiences within this community. We offer a specialized, inclusive approach that values the richness of intersecting identities and experiences.
Queer Counsellors with Lived Experience
Our team includes dedicated counsellors who identify as LGBTQIA2S+ and bring lived experience and understanding of the unique challenges surrounding sexual orientation, gender identity, and expression. You deserve empathetic support from someone who “gets it,” and our administrative team is here to help you find the right counsellor who aligns with your identity and goals.
Intersectional and Anti-Oppressive Framework
We approach every session from an intersectional and anti-oppressive lens, recognizing that identities within the LGBTQIA2S+ community are shaped by various factors, including race, ethnicity, class, and ability. Our goal is to provide a space where every facet of your identity is honoured, validated, and respected while also acknowledging and challenging systemic oppression and discrimination.
