Therapy and Assessment
for Richmond Residents
A direct Canada Line ride to our office, with care available in Cantonese and Mandarin
Richmond is one of the easiest places to reach us from. The Canada Line runs from Richmond-Brighouse, Lansdowne, Aberdeen and Bridgeport stations straight to Waterfront Station, which is steps from our office in the Rogers Heritage Building at 470 Granville Street.
For many Richmond clients, being able to speak in their first language matters. Dr. Howard Wong, a Licensed Psychologist, provides assessment, individual therapy and couples therapy in English, Cantonese and Mandarin.
What to Know as a Richmond Client
Care in Cantonese and Mandarin
Dr. Wong works with youth and adults on depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and substance use, and with couples. Ask for him by name when you book.
Adjusting to change
Moving countries, caring for aging parents, or raising children between two sets of expectations can be stressful. Therapy offers a confidential place to sort through it at your own pace.
Virtual when it suits you
If the commute does not fit your week, sessions can be held by secure, encrypted video from home or a private space at work.
