How to Book an Appointment
For an appointment, please phone the receptionist at 604.323.5221 or come to room B111 to make the booking in person. Drop-ins (short consultations of 10 to 15 minutes) are available daily during specific times to currently and/or previously enrolled students. Urgent and crisis appointments are also available. All students requesting Counselling appointments will be asked to complete a brief triage form and answer questions to determine need and urgency. Please note: Langara’s Counselling Services are in high demand and are a limited resource. This means there will be times when students may have to wait in order to see a Counsellor, especially during busy periods.
We also have a Counsellor located in the Indigenous Gathering Space (room C140).
Please bring your student identification card or picture ID when booking or attending appointments.
