I offer individual, couples, and group therapy to adults currently residing in British Columbia.

Reach out through the form under the “Contact” tab, or send me an email at drlaurenmcrae@gmail.com. From there, we can schedule a brief 15 minute phone consultation to ensure a good fit between us, or if you’d prefer, go straight to booking a first session through the Jane booking system.

Great question. Many therapists have chosen this profession because of some combination of empathy, curiosity, skill, or existential meaning that this work brings to our lives. Many of us also may have very similar training! The special distinctions between us will probably lie in how we relate to you. How do we pay attention? Do you feel yourself easing up as the session proceeds? Do we get each other’s sense of humour? Do our analogies and metaphors land like aha moments or clouds of confusion?

I do my best to show up as myself in session - well-trained, honest, direct, human, and flawed. I often laugh with my clients, sometimes tear up with them, and have been known to throw some colourful language around in session. For some clients, this won’t feel like the best fit, and for others, this will be the secret combination that helps them feel safe.

The only way to find out is to give it a try :)

You can reach me by email at drlaurenmcrae@gmail.com or through the contact form under the “Contact” tab.

I offer consistent pricing based on the session time. 50-minute sessions (whether individual or couples) are $220. 80-minute sessions are $330. Group fees are typically lower in cost, and in the range of $100-$120 per 120-minute group. Payment can be sent by e-transfer to drlaurenmcrae@gmail.com.

I do not currently direct bill to insurance companies, but once you submit payment, you will receive an electronic receipt that you can submit for reimbursement to your insurance provider.
