EMDR from Victoria on the same terms as from Vancouver. The Island’s EMDR clinicians are a bounded pool, and when the one you want is full, the next option on the mainland involves a sailing. [Book a free consultation for EMDR therapy in Victoria](https://www.westpeakwellness.com/book?with=camille-granda#calendar) [What EMDR therapy involves](https://www.westpeakwellness.com/services/emdr-therapy) Updated October 17, 2026 The Island EMDR pool is finite in a way a mainland pool is not. When the trained clinicians here are full, there is no adjacent city to try, the next option involves a sailing, and an intensive scheduled around ferry availability is a different piece of work from a weekly session. Remote delivery makes the entire provincial pool reachable from Victoria on the same terms as from Vancouver. For a modality this specific, being able to choose the clinician rather than take the one with the opening is most of the value. Sessions are $140 for 50 minutes and start with a [free 15-minute video call](https://www.westpeakwellness.com/book?with=camille-granda#calendar), 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, so check it for the RCC designation before the first paid session. [Fees and extended-health cover](https://www.westpeakwellness.com/pricing) are set out in full. EMDR from Victoria can also run as the EMDR Intensive once preparation is done: $190 for 90 minutes with Camille Granda. [How the intensive differs from weekly EMDR](https://www.westpeakwellness.com/compare/emdr-intensive-vs-weekly-emdr). ## EMDR therapist in Victoria: who you would see Taking new clients for EMDR therapy and seeing people in Victoria by secure video. Each is a Registered Clinical Counsellor; the registration is on the profile and can be checked on the BCACC register. ![Camille Granda, Registered Clinical Counsellor, seated and listening](https://www.westpeakwellness.com/_next/image?url=%2Fimg%2Fphoto%2Fcamille-chin.jpg&w=256&q=75&dpl=dpl_5oWqSyeZ3Dmx9o1tJgbj87jckevt) ### Camille Granda, RCC, CCC English and Tagalog · EMDR, Trauma, Anxiety and chronic stress [Book with Camille](https://www.westpeakwellness.com/book?with=camille-granda#calendar) [More about Camille](https://www.westpeakwellness.com/practitioners/camille-granda/victoria) ## Getting counselling in Victoria Victoria is a ferry or a flight from the mainland, which means the specialist pool is genuinely bounded rather than merely inconvenient. If the practitioner you need is in Vancouver, "going to see them" is a day. Island Health runs public intake, and the private sector in Greater Victoria is active. When the specific approach you want has no opening on the Island, the next option on the mainland involves a sailing. [![A stylised map of British Columbia with a central video-session hub linked by dotted lines to Prince George, Kamloops, Kelowna, Abbotsford, Surrey, Vancouver, Nanaimo and Victoria, showing that sessions reach every region of the province.](https://www.westpeakwellness.com/img/bc-reach.svg) (full size, opens in a new tab)](https://www.westpeakwellness.com/img/bc-reach.svg) Anywhere in BC includes Victoria. There is no catchment, because there is no office. Public mental-health intake for Victoria runs through [Island Health](https://www.islandhealth.ca/our-services/mental-health-substance-use-services). 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](https://www.westpeakwellness.com/compare/rcc-vs-psychologist-vs-social-worker-bc). **The strait stops being a factor. Virtual care is the one arrangement where being on the Island costs nothing at all in access.** More on this city, including who else it serves and what the local picture looks like: [online counselling in Victoria](https://www.westpeakwellness.com/online-counselling/victoria).

EMDR runs by secure video from anywhere on the Island, so there is no sailing at either end. Camille Granda offers EMDR to people in Victoria: weekly at $140 for 50 minutes, or the 90-minute intensive at $190, after a free 15-minute consultation. The booking calendar shows real open times in Pacific time, which is Victoria's own clock. **Can EMDR help with things that happened a long time ago?** That is a common use of it. The relevant question is whether the memory still carries a charge now, not how long ago it occurred. **Is EMDR therapy available in Esquimalt or Oak Bay?** Yes. EMDR Therapy by secure video reaches Esquimalt and Oak Bay exactly as it reaches Victoria: there is no office to get to and the same fee applies however far out you are. Island Health is the public route for Victoria and the rest of its region; this is the private one, and it needs no referral.
