At this time, my practice is 100% virtual. I offer online counselling to residents of BC living anywhere in the province. Counselling sessions are offered virtually through video appointments using a secure online platform called Jane app. Phone sessions are available by request as well.

Payment can be made at the end of the appointment by e-transfer or credit card. All clients are required to have a credit card on file.

Counselling with a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) is covered by many extended health benefit insurance plans. Please check with your insurance policy to confirm coverage. I do not offer direct billing to insurance companies. Receipts are provided that can be submitted to your insurance company for reimbursement.

If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, you are welcome to do so without any charges up until 24 hours before your scheduled appointment. Missed appointments and cancellations made within 24 hours of your appointment will be charged the full session fee. Exceptions may be made for extenuating circumstances such as unexpected illness or emergencies. If this is the case, please send me an email to discuss your circumstance.

Yes, I offer a limited number of sliding scale spots on my caseload. A sliding scale rate is a discounted rate that helps to make counselling more affordable to those experiencing financial difficulty. Please feel free to reach out to inquire about availability.

Yes, as a Registered CVAP Provider, your counselling sessions with me may be eligible for reimbursement if you have been approved for funding through the Crime Victim Assistance Program (CVAP). Learn more about the CVAP Program here.

That’s a good question! Many people like to start with weekly or biweekly sessions to get the ball rolling, but we can decide together what works best for you and your unique circumstance. It may depend on your schedule, finances, and what you are working on in therapy. You can choose to space sessions out as you go along.

Another great question! This really depends on what you are working on and what works for you. Many people come for an average of 6-12 sessions, however, some people come for more than that and some less. For deep or complex issues such as processing childhood trauma or relational attachment issues, longer-term counselling may be helpful. We can check in as we go along to see what your needs are and how you’ll know when you feel ready to end counselling. You can always pause or take a break from counselling at any time.
