Description

Are you a gay man who feels anxious, stressed and overwhelmed? Do you feel like life is passing you by while you silently suffer alone?

I help fellow gay men find freedom from anxiety, stress and overwhelm so that they can start living life to the fullest again. Often, this involves learning skills to help calm the anxiety in your nervous system. Once you feel more grounded, we’ll create a plan to help you move toward the life you’ve always wanted.

Facility Information

Summary

We founded The Centre for Gay Counselling because we realized that there was a need for more high-quality mental health services designed for gay men.

That’s why our counsellors aren’t just “gay-friendly,” they’re gay-affirming. This means that we believe there’s nothing wrong with being gay, and that it’s important for gay men to have their inherent worth affirmed. It also means that our counsellors have advanced training and experience working therapeutically with gay men.
