Psychologists and Therapists
for Burnaby
In-person care one SkyTrain ride from Metrotown, or virtual sessions from home
Many of our clients live, work or study in Burnaby. Our office is in downtown Vancouver at 470 Granville Street, a short walk from both Granville and Waterfront stations. From Metrotown, Royal Oak, Edmonds or Patterson, the Expo Line runs straight there with no transfer, which makes in-person therapy and assessment testing practical even on a workday.
If travelling in does not suit your week, therapy can happen by secure video instead. Many clients mix the two, starting in person and switching to virtual sessions during exams, busy seasons or when they are unwell.
Getting Care from Burnaby
Getting here
Take the Expo Line to Granville or Waterfront Station, then walk a few minutes to the Rogers Heritage Building. From Millennium Line stations such as Brentwood or Lake City Way, transfer to the Expo Line at Commercial-Broadway. Parking is available behind the building.
Support for students
Burnaby is home to Simon Fraser University and BCIT. Our psychoeducational and ADHD assessments include written recommendations that can support requests for academic accommodations, and supervised student therapy is available at $120 per session.
No referral needed
You do not need a doctor's referral to see one of our psychologists or counsellors. Self-referrals are welcome, and many extended health plans cover sessions with a registered psychologist.

What Burnaby Clients Often Ask About
Questions from Burnaby Clients
Do you have an office in Burnaby?
No. Our only office is in downtown Vancouver, at Unit 619, 470 Granville Street. For most Burnaby clients it is a direct Expo Line trip, and therapy can also be done entirely by video.
Can a student get an ADHD assessment for accommodations?
Yes. Our assessment reports include findings, a diagnosis where applicable, and recommendations you can share with your school's accessibility services. Each institution sets its own documentation requirements, so it helps to check what yours asks for.
Is there a lower-cost option?
Yes. Supervised doctoral students offer therapy at $120 per session, with regular supervision from a fully licensed psychologist. Group therapy is $60 per session.
Do I need a referral?
Not for psychology or counselling. A physician's referral is only needed for MSP-covered care with our consulting psychiatrists.
