West Coast Counselling

About our practice

We are a Maple Ridge and Coquitlam counselling clinic built around Registered Clinical Counsellors who take the work — and the booking experience — seriously. No waitlist maze: choose a clinician and book online when you are ready.

Who we are

West Coast Counselling was founded by Allison Bates, MA, RCC, who remains clinical director. To book with Allison, call 604-762-5358 or email [email protected] (limited appointments). Associates are available and may be booked directly through Jane.

We work with individuals, couples, and families facing depression, anxiety, parenting and postpartum concerns, relationship strain, grief, trauma, and the hard seasons that still deserve skilled support.

How we work

Gottman Method For couples: friendship, conflict patterns, and the small daily habits that protect trust.
CBT · DBT · ACT Practical skills for anxiety, depression, emotion regulation, and values-based change.
Trauma-aware pacing We do not flood. Sessions are collaborative, clear about goals, and respectful of your nervous system.

Allison also offers hypnotherapy as an optional tool for anxiety, stress reduction, and sleep — inquire by phone or email if that interest is specific to her practice.
