I also offer a limited number of in-person sessions @ 103-2849 North Rd. Burnaby BC on Tuesday evening. To inquire about an in-person session please fill out the contact page, email amandatcounselling@gmail.com, or text 778-355-0268.

What’s the difference between coaching and therapy?

Therapy entails a use of evidence based therapeutic techniques to support your mental health while coaching is a supportive conversation to help you reach your goal.

How long are sessions?

Most sessions are 50 minutes long. For folks experiencing complex issues that require more time, please enquire directly to book a 90 min session.

Do you take insurance?

Yes! Extended health insurers have uniques plans so please check with your insurance provider to see if they cover registered social workers before your session.

What are your fees?

Psychotherapy and coaching services are typically billed @ $160/50 min session and $185 for a 90 min sessions.

My hope of course is that cost will not be a barrier to finding the help you need. If you are experiencing economic hardship I am happy to have a conversation with you about providing a reduced fee services. I generally keep 10% of my client load for those struggling financially. I do not need proof of economic hardship just an honest conversation.

Finally, if the cost seems high, it is worthwhile to consider that the cost of living with psychological difficulties can also be high in terms of your quality of life and economically. Getting the help you need can be truly life changing.

What if I have to cancel?

Please allow 24 hours before the session to cancel. I understand that sometimes you have life/work emergencies and I will do my best to accommodate for those. If no showing up to sessions or rescheduling with less than 24 hr notice becomes common place, I will charge the full fee for missed appointment.

How do I know if we’re a good fit?

Finding a therapist or coach that you connect well with is challenging. Sometimes people can figure out if the therapist or coach is a good fit immediately but other times it can take up to 3 sessions.
