EMDR Therapy in Maple Ridge, BC
EMDR can leave you tired and raw, and from Ridge Meadows a clinician elsewhere means a bridge on the drive home.
EMDR Therapy for people in Maple Ridge is delivered by secure video by Registered Clinical Counsellors registered with the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors, with a free first consultation, no referral, and receipts your extended health plan can process.
Updated October 2, 2026
EMDR asks a lot of the nervous system. Processing sessions often end with people tired, a little unsettled, or simply wanting quiet, and the advice is usually to keep the rest of the day gentle. For somebody in Maple Ridge or Pitt Meadows whose EMDR clinician turned out to be over the Golden Ears or Pitt River Bridge, the rest of the day starts with a drive through traffic.
Video changes that end of the session. Processing happens from home, the closing phase that settles you before the session ends is the same as in a room, and afterwards you are already where you would want to be. The pool of trained clinicians also stops being whoever is within a bridge of Haney.
Sessions are $190 for 90 minutes and start with a free 30-minute video call, no charge, no card, and no obligation to book anything afterwards. Many BC extended health plans reimburse a Registered Clinical Counsellor; whether yours does is plan-dependent. Fees and extended-health cover are set out in full.

Getting counselling in Maple Ridge
Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows sit on the north bank of the Fraser, east of the Pitt River, and most of their working residents leave every day: west over the Pitt River Bridge toward Coquitlam and beyond, or south over the Golden Ears Bridge to Langley and Surrey.
Fraser Health runs public intake through the Maple Ridge Mental Health and Substance Use Centre, which accepts self-referral from adults. General counselling exists locally; a particular approach usually means looking across a bridge.
Public mental-health intake for Maple Ridge runs through Fraser Health. That route matters if you are seeking publicly funded care. It has no bearing on seeing a Registered Clinical Counsellor privately, which needs no referral and no diagnosis. See how RCCs, psychologists and social workers differ.
The session stops depending on which side of the river you happen to be on that day.

What EMDR therapy involves
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-supported therapy that helps the brain reprocess distressing memories so they lose their grip. You don't have to relive everything in detail or explain it perfectly: EMDR works with how memory is stored, not just how it's told. Available online across BC, including a 90-minute intensive format.
What it is commonly used for
- Trauma and PTSD
- Distressing or intrusive memories
- Anxiety and panic
- Grief and loss
- Intergenerational and cultural trauma
Your counsellor is EMDR-trained and works in a paced, trauma-informed way, we build safety and stability first, and never move faster than you're ready for. EMDR translates well to virtual sessions, and many people find the comfort of their own space helps the work.
The full picture: how sessions are structured, what the first one is like, and what it does not do, is on the EMDR therapy page. If you are still working out what you need, the short questionnaire is a quicker route than reading all of them, and what to expect in a first session covers the part most people are actually nervous about.
Questions from Maple Ridge
What do I need at home for EMDR by video?
A private room, a stable connection, and a device with a screen large enough to follow a moving point comfortably; a laptop is better than a phone. If following on screen does not suit you, self-administered tapping is an established alternative, and both are practised before any processing begins.
Should I plan anything for after a session?
Keep the rest of the day light where you can. Most people feel tired rather than distressed, and the preparation phase includes ways to settle that you can use afterwards. If a session lands harder than expected, that is raised at the next one and the pacing is adjusted.
Who would I see for EMDR therapy in Maple Ridge?
For EMDR therapy in Maple Ridge, Camille Granda, RCC, CCC, who works in English and Tagalog. Every session is by secure video, and the free consultation is with Camille as well, so the person you meet first is the person you would see.
