Counselling for Chilliwack, with Savneet
Savneet 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.
BC Association of Clinical Counsellors keeps a public register, so you can check Savneet’s registration yourself before a consultation in Chilliwack.
- First 15-minute consultation free, by video, with no obligation to book afterwards
- Individual counselling, $140 for 50 minutes
- Savneet does not offer couples counselling, EMDR or family counselling; Camille Granda does: book couples counselling with Camille, or book EMDR or family counselling with Camille.
Paid at booking, with a receipt for your extended health plan; whether your plan reimburses it depends on the plan. Fees and coverage.
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 anxiety, depression, trauma and attachment, personality disorders. Sessions run in English or Punjabi, 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.
- 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.
- English or Punjabi, Including moving between them inside one session, which is how most bilingual people actually think.
Sessions in English or Punjabi
Savneet works in English and Punjabi, 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 Savneet works with
Anxiety
Cycles of worry and overthinking, and a nervous system learning that it is safe to slow down.
Depression
Helping small steps and small moments feel possible again, without pressure to snap out of it.
Trauma and attachment
Trauma at whatever pace feels right, sometimes before you are ready to look at it at all; and attachment patterns, so the way you connect with others starts to feel like a choice rather than a reflex.
Personality disorders
Building a steadier sense of self without losing what makes you who you are.
Savneet may suit you if you are
- Managing everything on the outside, while quietly struggling on the inside
- Carrying trauma or attachment wounds that keep showing up in your relationships
- Stuck in patterns you recognise but cannot seem to shift on your own
- Not sure if what you are feeling has a name yet, and that is okay
- Wanting to work in English, in Punjabi, or moving between the two
Reaching out does not commit you to anything. We can start with a conversation and see if it feels right.
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.
