Online Counselling Services for BC residents
We offer online video-conference counselling for residents of BC whose geographical or time restraints makes it difficult to attend face-to-face counselling. Online or e-counselling is becoming more and more desirable for those who travel, have hectic or irregular work schedules, but wish to benefit from regular counselling support. You may be ill or disabled, live in a rural area of BC, foreign country or just feel more comfortable staying at home. Online video counselling may be the perfect fit for your current lifestyle or situation.
