Camille Granda · Coquitlam
Counselling for Coquitlam, with Camille
The Tri-Cities commute takes the evenings a weekly appointment would have to live in.
Camille works with clients in Coquitlam entirely by secure video, so nothing about the fee, the availability or the work changes with where you live. What changes is what getting to an appointment in person would have cost you — and that is the part this removes.
The thing that ends courses of therapy in the Tri-Cities is rarely the therapy. It is the commute. A working day that starts with a drive or a SkyTrain ride into Vancouver or Burnaby and ends with the same in reverse leaves an evening with very little slack in it, and a 6pm appointment on the other side of a bridge is a commitment that survives about four weeks.
Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam and Port Moody function as one place for most purposes and are three municipalities for administrative ones, which is its own small source of confusion when you are trying to work out what you are entitled to and where.
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 Coquitlam
- No commute on top of the commute — The single largest reason a course of therapy quietly stops here.
- Covers all three cities — Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam and Port Moody on identical terms, plus Anmore and Belcarra.
- Evening appointments — Weekday evenings by request, which is when a commuting schedule actually has room.
- 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.
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 Coquitlam ask
Do you cover Port Coquitlam and Port Moody?
Yes, and on the same terms. The practice is virtual and covers all of British Columbia, so which of the three municipalities you live in changes nothing about availability or fee.
Which health authority covers the Tri-Cities?
Fraser Health, despite most people here looking west to Vancouver and Burnaby for work and for a lot of services. It is worth confirming before joining a public waitlist — a referral into the wrong authority's queue costs weeks that nobody flags.
I get home late. What is the latest appointment?
Evening slots run on weekdays by request. The current bookable windows are listed on the booking page, and if none of them work it is worth saying so on the consultation call rather than forcing a time that will not survive a busy month.
Does virtual therapy actually work as well?
For the concerns most people bring — anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulty — the research on video-delivered therapy shows outcomes broadly comparable to in-person work. The trade-offs are real and worth talking through on a consultation.
Is there a free consultation first?
Yes — 15 minutes by video, no charge, no card, and no obligation to book anything afterwards.
