Burnaby is a city that mostly faces west. People work in Vancouver, look for services in Vancouver, and reasonably assume the health authority covering downtown covers them too.
It does not. Public mental-health intake for a Burnaby address runs through Fraser Health, not Vancouver Coastal. That is a small administrative fact with a real cost: people discover it at the wrong end of a referral, having already waited, and start again in a different queue.
Her focus is trauma, anxiety and chronic stress, grief, loss and life transitions. Sessions run in English or Tagalog, including moving between them within one session.

Why a video session suits Burnaby
- No trip across the city, The commute west is the most common reason a course of sessions here ends early. New Westminster and Queensborough have a page of their own.
- No referral, no diagnosis, Counselling with an RCC is accessed directly, whichever authority covers your address.
- English or Tagalog, Including moving between them inside one session, which is how most bilingual people actually think.
Sessions in English or Tagalog
Camille works in English and Tagalog, including moving between them inside one session. For a lot of people that is the difference between explaining a feeling and being understood the first time, and it does not require travelling to a bigger city to find it.
What Camille works with
Trauma
Difficult or overwhelming experiences, worked through at a pace you set, building safety and a sense of control first, rather than going straight at the hardest thing.
Anxiety and chronic stress
The patterns underneath high-functioning anxiety, perfectionism and burnout. The kind almost nobody around you can see, because you are still delivering.
Grief, loss and life transitions
Room for the changes you chose and the ones you did not: endings, identity shifts, and the uncertainty that arrives with them.
Camille may suit you if you are
- Anxious, overwhelmed, burnt out, or running on empty
- In the middle of a big change, a relationship, a move, a loss
- Carrying something from before that still shapes how you feel and how you are with people
- Tired of perfectionism, people-pleasing, or never quite feeling like enough
- Trying to make sense of yourself alongside culture, family expectations, and what got handed down
- Disconnected from your body, your feelings, or who you actually are
- Wanting better relationships and boundaries that hold
- Looking for someone who brings warmth and practical tools, not just listening
You do not need to have everything figured out before you start. Sometimes knowing that something is not working any more is enough of a reason to begin.
Questions people in Burnaby ask
Which health authority covers Burnaby?
Fraser Health, not Vancouver Coastal, which surprises a lot of people who work in Vancouver. It determines the public intake route for your address, and has no bearing at all on seeing a Registered Clinical Counsellor privately.
Do I need a doctor's referral?
No. Counselling with an RCC is accessed directly. There is no referral, no diagnosis, and no waiting for a physician appointment first.
Is counselling covered by MSP?
No. MSP does not cover counselling with an RCC. Many extended health plans reimburse it, depending on the plan, so check yours; receipts carry the registration number insurers ask for.
Can I have a session on a work day?
Times depend on the counsellor, and the booking page shows what is open. Because there is no travel, a session costs the session rather than the afternoon around it as well.
For what working in Tagalog means for someone in Burnaby, the practice’s page on Tagalog counselling in Burnaby covers it.
