Turning Tides Counselling, Therapy & Life Coaching is a licensed mental health service in Vancouver, BC. Owned and operated by Kotone Frankowski, a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor, we offer trauma-informed counselling with a specialty in Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD) guidance, emotional healing, and personal growth coaching. I offer a safe, inclusive space for LGBTQ2S individuals and relationships. Whether you’re exploring identity, navigating non-monogamy, or healing from trauma, you’re welcome here. I bring compassion, cultural awareness, and deep respect to our work together.

We acknowledge that we live, work, and learn on the unceded, ancestral, and traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and Sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
