Counselling for Chilliwack, with Camille

Camille works with clients in Chilliwack entirely by secure video. What changes is what getting to an appointment in person would have cost you, and that is the part this removes.

Chilliwack is where the Fraser Valley stops being commutable, and where specific modalities stop being available.

West of Chilliwack the Fraser Valley is commutable. At Chilliwack it stops. A Surrey appointment is a two-hour round trip in good conditions, and between November and March Highway 1 does not reliably provide good conditions.

That is the honest reason a great many people here have never seriously pursued counselling, not reluctance, but a standing arrangement that was never realistic to sustain through a winter.

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 Chilliwack

  • No highway, in any weather, A closed road does not cancel a video session. In this part of the valley that is the whole argument.
  • Modalities not available locally, EMDR and Gottman-informed couples work, without travelling west for them.
  • Serves the eastern valley, Sardis, Rosedale, Agassiz and Hope, with no travel penalty for being further out.
  • Phone fallback, Where a connection is unreliable, sessions run by phone, agreed in advance rather than improvised.

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 Chilliwack ask

Is there anything available locally in Chilliwack?

There is local practice, and for general counselling it may well be the right answer. This practice is virtual and covers the whole province, which matters most when what you need is specific rather than general.

What happens if my internet is unreliable?

Sessions can run by phone instead, and turning the camera off cuts the bandwidth needed considerably. It is worth agreeing in advance what happens if a connection drops, so it is an inconvenience rather than an interruption to the work.

Do you cover Hope and Agassiz?

Yes, anywhere in British Columbia. Being further east carries no penalty at all, which is the one respect in which virtual care is genuinely different from the alternative.

What does a session cost?

$140 for 50 minutes, after a free 15-minute consultation. Many extended health plans reimburse sessions with a Registered Clinical Counsellor, depending on the plan, so check yours; MSP does not cover them.
