Counselling for Maple Ridge, with Savneet
Most of Maple Ridge leaves town to work, so any counsellor is either near home or near work.
Savneet works with clients in Maple Ridge 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.
- First 30-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.
Paid at booking, with a receipt for your extended health plan; whether your plan reimburses it depends on the plan. Fees and coverage.
Maple Ridge is a city its workers leave. In the 2021 Census about six in ten employed residents with a usual place of work worked outside the city, and in Pitt Meadows about eight in ten. Nine in ten commuters went by car, and more than a quarter spent 45 minutes or longer getting there. The day starts on the Lougheed Highway, the Pitt River Bridge or the Golden Ears Bridge, and ends there too.
That turns finding a counsellor into a choice between two places. One near work means an hour carved out of the working day and nothing on a day off. One near home means arriving after the drive back, already tired. Video takes the place out of it. A Registered Clinical Counsellor anywhere in BC is as reachable from Silver Valley as from a desk downtown.
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 Maple Ridge
- No third bridge crossing, For many here the working day already crosses the Pitt River or the Fraser twice. A session from home or a parked car adds nothing to that.
- Near home and near work at once, The session goes where you are that day, so a week split between Maple Ridge and a job across the river does not decide which counsellor you can see.
- Pitt Meadows to Whonnock, Pitt Meadows, Haney, Hammond, Albion, Silver Valley and Whonnock on identical terms, with no penalty for living at the far east end.
- Built for rosters as well as commutes, Hospital and corrections rosters change from one rotation to the next. The booking calendar shows each counsellor's real open times, so sessions can follow the roster instead of a fixed day of the week.
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 Maple Ridge ask
I work across the river. Should I look for a counsellor near work or near home?
Whichever you choose, one side of the week loses. A counsellor near work means time cut out of the working day and nothing on days off; one near home means a session after the drive back. Video removes the choice: the same counsellor, from wherever you are that day, with nothing to cross.
Which health authority covers Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows?
Fraser Health. The public door is the Maple Ridge Mental Health and Substance Use Centre on Dewdney Trunk Road, which takes adults 19 and over and accepts a self-referral, and Ridge Meadows Hospital has an emergency department. A place in the public queue is not given up by starting with a private counsellor in the meantime.
I work shifts at a correctional centre or the hospital. Can sessions fit?
Yes. Describe how the roster runs at the consultation, and sessions are spaced to match that pattern rather than pinned to one day. The booking calendar shows each counsellor's real open times. A run of nights or a stretch of overtime is a reason to space sessions further apart, not to stop.
Is there something free for a teenager or young adult here?
Yes. Foundry Ridge Meadows on the Lougheed Highway offers free, confidential services for young people aged 12 to 24 and their families, including counselling. For adults, Fraser Health's mental-health centre and the low-cost counselling page are the places to start.
Who do I call if it cannot wait?
Call or text 9-8-8 if you are thinking about suicide or worried about someone. The Fraser Health Crisis Line, 604-951-8855 or 1-877-820-7444, answers at any hour, and 310-6789 (no area code) reaches mental-health support anywhere in BC. In an emergency call 9-1-1 or go to the emergency department at Ridge Meadows Hospital. Counselling is not a crisis service.
