2SLGBTQIA+ queer Therapy
Holeigh’s counselling career started at Skipping Stone.
A Calgary-based non-profit with a mission to connect trans and gender-diverse youth, adults, and families with comprehensive and low-barrier access to the support they need and deserve.
The work, clients, colleagues, & training at Skipping Stone all influenced what Sip & Psych is now.
As a queer-identified counsellors living in Alberta, it’s a priority to create a space for the Queer Community. The world can feel like a pretty scary and messed up place these days. If we can offer support for whatever you need, we’re here for it.
