Frequently Asked Questions


Do you work in person or online?

We offer both in person and virtual sessions. Our office space is located in Halfmoon Bay and is adjacent to our family home. This creates a comfortable and relaxed place to meet and we have both adult and children’s therapy resources within our office space. We do like to advise our client’s that we do have small children who you may hear from time to time on the property. We also have two friendly cats and a dog who can be very supportive within the therapy process.

What ages of children do you work with?

Leah offers therapy for children as young as 6 years old. The younger the child is, the more involved in the therapy process parents need to be. During your initial appointment, this will be discussed based on the needs of your child and their developmental level. Parent involvement can be for the whole session or just at the beginning or the end.

What is the different between a Registered Social Worker (RSW and a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC)?

Registered Social Workers who hold a Masters of Social work have completed their graduate degree and are licensed to provide therapeutic counselling and psycho-social interventions. We are regulated by the BC College of Social Workers and must demonstrate a high level of experience and skills within mental health and psycho-therapy approaches. A individual who holds a Master’s of Counselling can register as an RCC and has demonstrated knowledge in these areas as well. Both regulatory bodies license qualified individual’s to provide counselling services.
