Family Services of York Region (FSYR) offers a number of counselling programs. Some services are free and others are offered on a sliding scale. Current programs include group counselling for people who identify as trans, supports for families and individuals who are coming out or are navigating other challenges related to their queer identities.

After an initial intake interview, you can get connected with counselling services and referrals to doctors, endocrinologists and other affirming service providers. The initial intake and some services are free, additional services and referrals to assist with your journey may require a cost.

However, the clinic and their staff are incredibly well connected and easily direct you to the best and most affordable services in the region.

At these meetings you can share as much or a little as you like, but know that you are entering a supportive, confidential and anonymous peer to peer support space with others who have faced similar challenges.
