Frequently Asked Questions

An RCC is a mental health professional who has met the rigorous academic and clinical requirements set by the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors (BCACC). This includes a Master’s degree in counselling or a related field, ongoing supervision, and adherence to a strict code of ethics. Working with an RCC means you are receiving professional, ethical, and evidence-based care.

Counselling can support you in many areas, including:

• Anxiety, stress, or burnout

• Depression and mood challenges

• Trauma and PTSD

• Grief and loss

• Relationship or family issues

• Self-esteem and identity concerns

• Life transitions and decision-making

Your first session is about getting to know each other and helping you feel comfortable. We’ll talk about what’s bringing you to counselling, explore your goals, and discuss how therapy might support you. You’re welcome to ask questions at any point, we’ll move at your pace.

Standard sessions are typically 50 minutes long. However, longer sessions are available upon request.

Everyone's journey is unique. Some people find clarity after just a few sessions, while others benefit from longer-term support. We'll regularly check in on your progress and adjust our work together as it feels right for you.
