Fees & Insurance
At Calm Waters Counselling Services, I believe that accessing counselling should feel approachable, transparent, and supportive. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate space where you can explore your experiences, work toward meaningful change, and feel supported in your healing journey.
Below you will find information about session fees, ICBC counselling, and options for financial accessibility.
Counselling Fees
Individual Counselling — $160 per session
Individual counselling offers a dedicated space to explore your concerns, develop insight, navigate challenges, and work toward your personal goals at a pace that feels right for you.
Couples Counselling — $180 per session
Couples counselling provides an opportunity to strengthen communication, deepen understanding, navigate conflict, and work toward healthier relationship patterns in a supportive environment.
ICBC Counselling — $160 per session
If you are navigating the emotional impact of a motor vehicle accident, counselling can provide support as you work through the challenges and changes that may follow.
I offer counselling for eligible ICBC clients and provide direct billing to ICBC, subject to claim eligibility, authorization, and applicable coverage requirements.
If you are accessing counselling through an ICBC claim, please reach out to discuss your circumstances and the steps needed to get started.
Sliding-Scale Fees
I recognize that financial circumstances can sometimes make accessing counselling challenging. A limited sliding-scale option may be available for those experiencing financial barriers.
If cost is a concern, please reach out to discuss your circumstances. We can explore whether a reduced fee may be possible.
Insurance & Payment
Extended Health Benefits
I do not offer direct billing to extended health insurance providers. Payment is due at the time of your session, and you will receive a receipt that you can submit to your insurance provider for potential reimbursement, depending on your individual plan and coverage.
I encourage you to contact your insurance provider before beginning counselling to confirm your coverage, reimbursement amount, and eligibility requirements.
ICBC Direct Billing
Direct billing to ICBC is available for eligible and authorized counselling services, subject to the terms of your claim.

You don't have to navigate everything on your own. Finding the right support is an important first step, and I would be happy to connect with you.
