CELESTE FRANCIS-GOMESZ
Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
(she/her)
Hi! I’m Celeste (she/her). I support clients from all walks of life, with a particular passion for working with queer, questioning, and marginalized individuals. My approach to therapy is warm, grounded, and non-judgmental – a space where you can show up exactly as you are, no explanations needed.
I understand how complex it can be to navigate identity and self-acceptance in a world that doesn’t always make room for you. I’m here to offer gentle guidance as you explore who you are, where you belong, and what it means to live authentically. My hope is to create a safe and compassionate space where you can breathe, reflect and find understanding and connection.
I practice from an intersectional, anti-oppressive lens, recognizing that our lived experiences, identities, and cultural contexts shape how we move through the world. As we work together, we take things at your pace, creating room for growth without overwhelm. My intention is to help you move through your challenges in ways that feel steady, manageable, and grounded in who you truly are.
If you’re curious about what therapy with me might look like, I invite you to reach out for a free consultation. I’m here to meet you where you’re at and to walk alongside you as you navigate whatever comes next.
