LGBTQ+ Therapy Services

Personalized, Compassionate Therapy for Sexual and Gender Minorities

Members of the alphabet community have unique and sometimes complex challenges.

At the same time, the rainbow umbrella is as diverse a group as any. We understand that matters of sexuality and gender may only be one part of your identity. We've found that for most humans, sex and gender are huge realms of triggers, shame, and maladaptive behaviours. Just like an iceberg, these matters may be visible in a limited sense, but the critical mass is often obscured in the subconscious. What we think of as "the issue" are often just the very tips of tendrils which extend far deeper into our subconscious, our shadow.

BestQuest therapy for LGBTQ+ folk is highly personalized;

We’ll explore your challenges, concerns, strengths, and goals, and with you, craft a therapeutic path that suits you. We don’t use cookie-cutter interventions from textbooks. Instead, we draw on techniques that are based in evidence and have been successful for LGBTQ+ clients previously. These include gestalt therapy, narrative therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness-based techniques, and polyvagal and attachment theories. We also subscribe to a decolonization perspective and practice trauma-informed care.

Anyone who feels they hold any form of LGBTQ2ISAA++ identity (as well as those who don’t subscribe to traditional views of sex and gender) can benefit from therapy at BestQuest. In particular, folks who’ve experienced trauma, stigma, judgement, or discrimination can get immense benefit from therapy. People who are struggling to integrate their identity with their work or family life are also likely to benefit.
