Caitlin Gilbert

Hi, I’m Caitlin (she/her)


** As a counselling intern completing my practicum with Our Landing Place, I am restricted in the types of counselling I can offer. Please fill out this form to help me and my supervising team determine if I can support you. **

I like to think that everyone is the author of their own stories, and every story is unique and full of plot twists, changes in characters, and an array of story lines. I love reading other people’s novels and enjoy helping them navigate through the negative chapters of their stories to a more positive narrative.

I am a queer, neurodivergent, kink friendly, ciswoman, who lives on the native lands of the Anishinaabeg and Wendat peoples in Ontario. I am enthusiastic about trans-inclusive women’s issues, collaborating with individuals and couples and helping others to eliminate the feelings of shame they may experience with sex and intimacy.

I am currently completing my Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology at Yorkville University with a prior degree in Nursing. I am a registered nurse in Ontario(registered with CNO),and I have experience of collaborating with clients with depression, anxiety, and other mental health issues. I also am a registered psychotherapist(qualifying) with the CRPO. I have certification in kink affirming care, as well as course certification with a focus in couple’s counselling.

I offer a very casual, collaborative, safe, non judgemental, openminded, and lighthearted approach to counselling. I work through a non oppressive, sex positive,  humanistic, and feminist lens and I hope to provide you with a space where you feel safe to share your stories with me.

My areas of focus include:

  • Sex and Intimacy

  • Kink Affirming Care

  • Non-Normative Relationship Dynamics (e.g. Consensual Non-Monogamy, Polyamory, Swinging, Caregiver and BDSM Dynamics etc.)

  • Sex Work

  • Depression and Anxiety

  • ADHD and Neurodiversity

  • Self Esteem and Self Worth Issues

As a counselling intern, I am able to provide trauma-informed counselling but not specialized trauma treatment. I am also unable to provide treatment for those experiencing active psychosis and cannot write gender affirming assessments for Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) and gender affirming surgery. Post-traumatic stress, intimate partner violence, sexual assault, and active addiction will be considered by my clinical supervisors on a case-by-case basis to ensure I can provide an appropriate level and type of support.

If you would like to see if we would be a good fit to work together, please complete this form. Our team will be in touch to schedule a free 15-minute consultation if I am able to offer you support, or a referral to a counsellor who can support you should your current needs be outside of my scope.

Session Fee: $40 per 50-minute session (plus applicable tax).
