Holeigh Urquhart (She/Her), C.C.C.
Sip & Psych
As a queer counsellor who understands relational dynamics beyond the “norm,” I know how healing it can be to speak with someone who truly gets your lived experience without needing to explain the basics. Hey, I’m Holeigh Urquhart (she/they), the founder of Sip & Psych, and a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) with a Masters in Counselling Psychology.
I’ve been working in mental health for over 15 years and absolutely adore what I do. I practice from a strength-based approach with a focus on customizing evidence-based techniques that best work for you (Narrative, Polyvagal, Existential, Humanistic, Queer Informed therapies).
I specialize in relational/couples therapy across a wide range of dynamics, including consensual non-monogamy, polyamory, & other non-traditional relationship structures. I work within the realm of sex therapy supporting everything from intimacy challenges to kink, BDSM, and erotic exploration always through a lens that is sex-positive, non-judgmental, and empowering.
When we work together I want you to feel heard, safe, and supported in an open judgment-free environment. I can promise you will be met with warmth, empathy, and acceptance from an inclusive-focused practitioner. Many of my clients work with me because of my deep knowledge of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community — a commitment that began with my work at Skipping Stone & is rooted in my own lived experience.

Personal Interests:
My favorite way to connect with my friends & family is over food. And the most likely place you’ll find me on the weekend is checking out a new brunch spot or a patio with a cold drink in hand.
I’ve had many cats growing up and currently have two - Jack & Finn. You’ll likely see them pop up if we do virtual sessions. If you follow my instagram you’re likely to see their little furry faces there as well.
