Fraser River Counselling
TWU Counselling Psychology students provide a broad range of counselling services to the community. While under the supervision of professional counsellors and faculty, students see clients from all walks of life. This valuable assistance offered by our students is conducted in a closed-circuit environment to assure complete client confidentiality.
Fraser River Counselling (FRC) is located on the beautiful campus of Trinity Western University. It is one of several counsellor training sites designed for the purpose of providing both practicum and internship experience.
Other Counselling Locations
Fraser River Counselling operates out of three sites:
- Vernon Strombeck Centre -Trinity Western University, Langley
- St. Dunstan’s Anglican Church - Aldergrove
- Central Heights Church - Abbotsford
See bus schedules.
Cost
There is a $20 charge for counselling services per 50 minute session with a 1st-year practicum student and $40 per session with an advanced practicum student (2nd-3rd year student). In case of hardship or exceptional circumstance, this fee can be reduced. Income generated from these fees goes directly back into enhancing the service offered to our clients, such as increased intake and referral service and improved observation technology.
Availability
Counselling services at all of FRC locations are available from late September to late July of the next year, generally on Mondays and Wednesdays.
