Counselling in Tagalog for Richmond
Local provision is built around Cantonese and Mandarin; Tagalog speakers are looking somewhere else.
Westpeak Wellness offers counselling in Tagalog or English for Richmond, by secure video with a Registered Clinical Counsellor who is a native Tagalog speaker. Sessions cover anxiety, trauma, grief, family and immigration stress, and can move between the two languages within the hour. The first 30-minute consultation is free.
Updated September 6, 2026
Richmond has real counselling capacity, and it is built, correctly, around the city's Chinese-speaking communities. For a Tagalog speaker the local field is much thinner than the size of the city suggests, and people routinely search Vancouver or Surrey instead.
The airport and the port are also large Filipino employers here, on rosters that change. A session you can attend from home between shifts is worth more than one you could theoretically drive to.
Sessions run in Tagalog, in English, or moving between the two as the conversation needs, which is what most bilingual people do without planning to. Nothing about the fee or the availability changes with the language.

Questions people in Richmond ask
Are there Tagalog-speaking counsellors in Richmond?
There are some, and far fewer than the size of the community would suggest. Most of Richmond's multilingual mental-health provision is oriented to Cantonese and Mandarin. That is a genuine local strength, and it is not the language everybody needs.
I work rotating shifts at YVR. Can therapy fit around that?
Yes. Booking in blocks around a roster with gaps between them is normal, and evening appointments are available by request.
What does a first session involve?
Thirty minutes free first, by video, to work out whether it is a fit at all. If it is, the first full session is about your story and what you want to be different, not a form to fill in.
For the wider picture of accessing counselling from Richmond: waitlists, the health authority, and what exists locally, counselling in Richmond covers it. A large city whose counselling supply is organised around languages this practice does not offer, which thins the field more than the population suggests.
This is not a crisis service. If you need urgent support in BC, call or text 9-8-8 at any hour, or 310-6789 for the BC Mental Health Support Line. In immediate danger, call 911.
