Out of the Box Counselling & Collaborations offers trauma counselling services to neurodiverse two-spirit, queer, and LGBTQIA+ individuals. We aim to disrupt the status quo of how people approach counselling; by offering an affirmative space run by neuroqueers for neuroqueers.
The COVID-19 pandemic has directly impacted the demand for mental health services, and have highlighted the intersectional ways that neurodivergent queer/two-spirit people experience challenges and access services. Curating a space that recognizes the uniqueness of each client’s circumstances and challenges the status quo of ableism, colonization, and heteronormativity can help people to more authentically engage in their own healing work while also creating a meaningful space to connect to other two-spirit and neuroqueer individuals.
