Counselling sessions from the comfort of your own home.
Individual and Couples Counselling
Online counselling is a convenient alternative to in-office counselling, with all of the same benefits. For some, e-counselling can be more beneficial than meeting in an office environment. It offers more flexibility with scheduling, you can be comfortable in your own space, and you can stay in a reflective place and take care of yourself after a session ends instead of navigating traffic or the busy outside world.
Benefits of Counselling:
Feel validated, heard, and understood by another person. This is usually the most important and impactful aspect of therapy. Having another person accept you fully, and communicate to you that they understand why you feel the way you do, without passing judgment, is the first step to finding peace and healing.
Helps you gain insight into your own behaviour and the behaviour of others. Understand the "why" and "how" of your behaviours.
Replace unhelpful coping mechanisms with new and healthy ways communicating.
Learn new techniques to help you cope with feelings and uncomfortable situations.
Develop skills to help you deal with difficult situations in the future. You don't need to be in crisis or distress currently to access counselling or therapy services. In fact, seeing a counsellor can assist you to build a tool box of techniques to help you deal with any conflict or crises that may arise in the future.

Policies
Because practicing as a licensed counsellor within Canada is a highly regulated profession, we are only able to provide phone counselling services to current residents of British Columbia.
Phone and online counselling sessions require that you have a quiet, private space with minimal distractions secured for the duration of our session, and a reliable phone/internet connection.
The rates of phone and online counselling are the same as in-office counselling provided that you have a Canadian phone number where you can be reached.
48 hours notice is required for any cancellations or rescheduling. We are committed to providing each of our clients with exceptional care. When a client cancels without giving enough notice, it prevents another client from being seen. For this reason, if sufficient notification is not received, you will be charged for the full amount of your session.
Coverage/extended health care plans
Most extended health care plans (Manulife, Green Shield, Blue Cross, etc.) will cover full or partial cost of counselling sessions with a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC). If you are a member of an extended health care plan through your work, school, or through an immediate family member's plan, please check with your provider for the details of your coverage. You can submit your receipt for reimbursement.
Payment options
