appointment information
The British Columbia Association of Clinical Counsellors has recently adjusted the rates and fees for Registered Clinical Counsellors in BC to a range of $120-$150 (+GST) per session. In accordance with BCACC I will be adjusting my rates as of January 2023 to $140 (gst included) per 55 minute session.
I continue to offer sliding-scale fees to those in need (limited space). If you feel you are a candidate for a reduced fee, please mention it to me. I also offer free 15-minute consultations to discuss whether my approach will work for you; finding the right fit for you is an important step when seeking out a counsellor.

Session Length
Sessions are typically 55 minutes long for individuals. Different lengths of sessions can be discussed prior to commencing counselling.
Coverage
Many extended health care plans will reimburse a portion or the full fee amount of counselling with a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC). Check with your healthcare plan to see if you have coverage. If you do, you will need to pay me in full and I will provide you with a receipt with my RCC #. You will then be able to file a claim with your health care provider and receive reimbursement from them.
Cancellation Policy
Please provide 48 hours notice for cancellations or rescheduling. If less than 48 hours notice is provided or an appointment is missed, you will be charged the full amount for a session.
If you are running late, please call or text to inform me and you will be granted a full session if there are no clients after you.
