Is There a Shortage of Counsellors In BC?

Is there a shortage of counsellors in BC? Finding a great counsellor in BC is becoming a challenge, and a large part of this has to do with increased demand. The mental effects of the pandemic have caused ripple effects through the counselling world, and it is leading to a shortage of counselors in BC.

While early studies have shown that most people will bounce back from the COVID-19 pandemic, a large minority will struggle with lingering effects. The challenging part is treating all of these new patients. With a small number of counsellors available in BC, the supply of available counsellors is hitting all-time lows.

Overcoming the Shortage of Counsellors In BC

The demand for counsellors in BC keeps growing. Before the pandemic, there was already a limited number of counsellors. However, the surge in demand has not been met with government support. Because of the excess demand, few counsellors in BC are willing to take on new clients out of fear that they will not be able to provide adequate service.

Only a few clinics now are actively taking new patients, with one of them being Kuldip Counselling. At Kuldip Counselling, our team of counsellors is committed to helping you manage through challenging times. Whether that is depression, addiction, or marriage problems, our team can provide the counselling support needed to get you through the problem.

We have a clinic of dedicated counsellors that will work hard to provide you with the care and support you need. With a shortage of supply, it can be difficult finding the right counsellor for yourself or a loved one. But it does not have to be impossible.

Kuldip Counselling and Consulting has two convenient locations in Surrey and Langley. They offer counselling services and compassionate therapy in the areas of addictions counselling, and family and marriage counselling.
