Meet your Counsellor: Heather Michael
I am a Registered Clinical Social Worker (BC College of Social Workers and Alberta College of Social Workers) with a Master’s Degree in Social Work from the University of Victoria. I have been working with children, youth, adults and families for over 26 years, specializing in mental health in private practice and for provincial governments.
Individuals and families enjoy my gentle and responsive approach. I bring a wide variety of skills and experiences to my practice, including expertise in child youth mental health.
Outside of my work as a therapist, you can find me working on my other passion, riding the amazing bike trails on Vancouver Island. I believe strongly in the connection between physical activity and wellness, especially when that involves being immersed in nature.
Registered Clinical Social Worker
I completed my social work degree at the Thompson River University in 1999 and my Master’s Degree in Social Work at the University of Victoria in 2007. I am a Registered Clinical Social Worker.
Many extended health care plans provide coverage. Please consult with your individual extended health care provider to see if your plan provides coverage for mental health services.
Direct billing is available for Military and Veterans, and I'm an approved provider with Crime Victims Assistance Program (CVAP) and Autism BC Funding.
Fees & Cancellation
My fee for individual and family therapy sessions is $175 per session (50 minutes). Longer sessions are available upon request for an additional fee.
For the other professional services (consultation, clinical supervision & assessments), please contact me directly to discuss rates.
Once onboarded, you will receive a janeapp link that will remind you of your upcoming appointments.
For payment, I accept cash, cheques, credit cards, and e-transfers.
To cancel your session, please give 24-hour notice.
This will allow me to refund your money in full. (Otherwise, unfortunately I have to charge the full session rate.)
