Courses and Workshops

Online and live

We help wellness practitioners build LGBTQ2SIA+ inclusive and affirming practices.

From the basics of the queer alphabet to gender-affirming care, we have a range of online self-paced courses, complete with continuing education credits for naturopathic doctors.

Join us for our live workshops to practice skills like gender-inclusive clinical interviewing and zero-awkwardness sexual health conversations.

Who we are

Meet your facilitators

Dr Cyndi Gilbert ND

Dr. Cyndi Gilbert, ND (she/they)

Cyndi is a naturopathic doctor (inactive), author, and the Executive Director of the Canadian Association of Naturopathic Doctors. One of the original founders of Heal All Consulting, Cyndi’s online courses remain on the platform, though they no longer receive any financial benefit. Prior to working full-time as a nonprofit executive, Cyndi was a faculty member at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine and had a primary clinical focus working with LGBTQ2SIA+, Indigenous and racialized clients and communities, as well as people who use drugs, are homeless, disabled, HIV+, precariously employed, and facing complex mental health challenges.

Cyndi is a queer/spawn, mad* White Ashkenazi settler and lives in Toronto with her family.

Dr Arlie Millyard ND

Arlie Millyard, ND (she/her)

Arlie went into naturopathic medicine intending to create the queer-positive clinic that she and her friends and loved ones would love. When she got to naturopathic college and found the curriculum sorely lacking, she realized she could make a bigger impact by teaching other wellness professionals how to create inclusive spaces.

Her bachelor’s degree in biochemistry and psychology instilled a love for scientific research and a fascination with the way our mental and physical health are one and the same. Arlie is a queer femme and lives with her spouse and their tiny black cat in Toronto.

Our courses

All online, on-demand, and eligible for CE credits.

Thank you for presenting detailed info on many aspects of trans care. Clinical, pharmaceutical and social considerations are covered to enable me to feel much more confident and considerate as a clinician. More importantly Dr Gilbert delivers the information in a thoughtful and non judgemental fashion. Thank you!
