Counselling for White Rock, with Savneet
Savneet works with clients in White Rock 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.
A small city on the border where the counsellor you can reach may be someone you will see again at the pier.
BC Association of Clinical Counsellors keeps a public register, so you can check Savneet’s registration yourself before a consultation in White Rock.
- 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.
White Rock is small in a way that changes what privacy means. A city of a few square kilometres wrapped around one hill, one promenade and one main street is a place where the person in the waiting room is quite often someone you know, and where the counsellor you would be booking with may share a grocery store, a beach walk and a dentist with you.
It is also an older city: in the 2021 Census, 8,185 of White Rock's 21,940 residents, about 37%, were 65 or over. That shapes what people actually come to therapy for here: retirement that turned out to be harder than expected, caregiving for a partner, grief after a long marriage, health anxiety with a real diagnosis underneath it, and adult children who moved away. Those are not the presentations a general "anxiety and depression" page is written for.
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 White Rock
- No doorway to be seen at, In a city where the pier, the pharmacy and the main street are shared, that is the practical privacy concern rather than an abstract one.
- No drive up the hill, Sessions from home matter more where mobility, weather or a steep grade are part of the calculation.
- Serves the whole Peninsula, White Rock, South Surrey, Crescent Beach and Ocean Park, on identical terms, municipal boundaries do not change availability.
- 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 White Rock ask
Do you have an office in White Rock?
No. Every session is by secure video; there is no office anywhere.
Do you cover South Surrey, Crescent Beach and Ocean Park?
Yes, and on exactly the same terms. The practice covers all of British Columbia, so which side of the White Rock–Surrey boundary you live on changes nothing about availability or fee.
I am retired. Is counselling still worth starting?
Yes, and the question comes up here more than almost anywhere. Grief, the shape of retirement, caregiving and health worry are ordinary reasons to start and respond to the work as well as anything else does. A free 15-minute consultation is a reasonable way to find out whether it is worth your time, and saying no afterwards costs nothing.
I am not confident with video calls. Is that a problem?
No. The link opens in a browser with nothing to install and no account to create, and the first few minutes of a first session are routinely spent making sure it works. If the video is the obstacle, say so on the consultation call and it can be sorted out then rather than on the day.
Can I have sessions in Punjabi?
Yes, with Savneet Singh, in Punjabi, English or a mix.
