Whatever brought you here, whether it’s feelings of shame, disconnection, being stuck, worries about your relationship, sexuality, identity or otherwise, Evelyn is so glad that you are here. In counselling with Evelyn, you can expect a warm and caring presence to witness and be with you.

Evelyn Taylor (they/she) is a queer, non-binary, poly, non-disabled, white settler on the unceded territories of the xwməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. Evelyn’s identities and lived experiences inform her practice. These include a working class upbringing, trauma, grief, and growing up as the weird, tomboy kid.

Evelyn believes that you are the expert in your own life. They firmly believe that all of us deserve access to our emotions, pleasure, and bodies in a way that feels connected, secure, and free from shame. Co-creating a space that feels affirming, safe, sex-positive, and nourishing to your relationship to yourself and others is Evelyn’s focus. They believe that safety and trust in our chats is to be cultivated together.

Evelyn’s approach is emotion-focused, somatic, and attachment-based. They support both relationships and individuals. She specializes in the areas of relationships and sex therapy. This includes BDSM and kink, non-monogamy, pleasure, desire, boundaries, and communication. Other specific areas of support and training include working with neurodiversity, chronic pain, and queer & trans folks.

In addition to counselling, they offer facilitated R.A.D.A.R. sessions. RADAR sessions are collaborative, structured check-ins for partners to communicate honestly and vulnerably, produce action-oriented plans, and be supported to get there.

In their personal life, Evelyn’s cup is filled by nature, great coffee, film, being a step-parent to their partner’s cat, and Mario Kart. They strive to live with values of being anti-oppressive, trauma-informed, and sex-positive in their personal and professional life.
