LGBTQ+ affirming therapy in Vancouver for queer & trans adults navigating relationships, identity, shame, and addiction
You’re in the right place.
Hi, I'm Michaela (she/her), but you can call me Mic!
I'm a counsellor based in the Mount Pleasant area of Vancouver, BC and I’m working toward my RCC designation with the BCACC.
My approach is anti-oppressive, which means the world you're living in is always part of the conversation – not just what's happening on the inside. The shame, the relationship patterns, the exhaustion didn't come from nowhere, and we won't pretend they did.

What becomes possible in therapy
Key areas of focus
-
When your relationship holds so much love but something keeps getting in the way.
-
When the distance between you and your partner (or yourself) has become hard to ignore.
-
When your relationship with substances has started to feel like something worth looking at.
-
When you're exhausted from carrying the weight of a world that wasn't built for you.
-
When you're not quite sure who you are underneath everything you've been told to be.

Choosing a therapist is a big deal. Let's have a conversation and see if I’m the right fit. If not, I'll help you find a counsellor that is!
