If you’ve been impacted by a violent crime or a motor vehicle accident, you may qualify for free counselling through BC’s Crime Victim Assistance Program (CVAP) or ICBC. These programs are designed to support your emotional recovery — and as an approved provider for both, I can bill them directly so you can focus on healing.
Whether you’re processing trauma from a car accident or working through the emotional effects of a violent incident, I offer compassionate, trauma-informed care tailored to your unique needs.
