Evening & Weekend Therapy in New Brunswick
Sometimes you can’t wait until next week to talk to someone. Stress, conflict, anxiety and grief don’t follow a schedule—and neither do we.
Our evening and weekend therapy sessions make it easier to connect with a therapist when you need support most, not just during regular hours. Whether you’re dealing with a sudden crisis, relationship challenges or overwhelming stress, you don’t have to wait to get help.
Appointments are offered virtually or in-person in our Saint John or Fredericton office. Fees are the same as our regular hour appointments.
When life can’t wait until Monday. THERAPISTS THAT WORK WITH YOUR SCHEDULE.
How much do evening & weekend appointments cost?
Sessions with a registered social worker (RSW) or licensed counselling therapist (LCT) are $160 for 50 minutes.
For Family, Couples, EMDR or Play Therapy, sessions are $170 for 50 minutes.
Is it covered by insurance?
Our counselling fees are not covered by Medicare but are covered by many extended health insurance plans. We partner with Veterans Affairs Canada or Canadian Armed Forces and can direct bill them.
Our clinic has therapists who are either registered social workers (RSW) or Licensed Counselling Therapists (LCT).
You must check your specific plan for what you have coverage for, as coverage is different for each policy. Verify that your plan covers counselling/therapy with a MSW, RSW or LCT. Your insurance may state you have coverage for clinical counsellor or psychotherapist, which would cover LCT or social worker.
We also offer direct billing with many different insurance companies, which allows you to keep more money in your pocket. We can direct bill Blue Cross, Veterans Affairs (VAC), Canadian Armed Forces (CAF), Canada Life, Claim Secure, Chamber of Commerce, Work Safe, NIHB, Department of Social Development, and more provided your plan is set up for direct billing. You are still responsible for any co-pay amounts at the time of service.
Are these sessions for emergencies?
No. These sessions provide urgent but non-emergency support. If you are experiencing a crisis or are at risk of harm, please call 911 or go to your nearest emergency department.
