Online Counselling for NIHB Counselling

NIHB Counselling for First Nations and Inuit Clients

At the Canadian Center for Counselling and Psychotherapy, we are proud to provide professional, compassionate, and culturally respectful counselling services for eligible First Nations and Inuit individuals through the Non-Insured Health Benefits (NIHB) Program.

Mental health challenges can affect anyone at any stage of life. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, stress, relationship difficulties, life transitions, or the impacts of intergenerational trauma, our experienced therapists are here to support your healing journey.

We offer both virtual counseling across Canada, making it easier to access the support you need in a way that feels comfortable and accessible.

As an approved NIHB provider, we offer direct billing to NIHB whenever eligible, helping reduce financial barriers so you can focus on your well-being rather than paperwork. The NIHB program provides coverage for eligible mental health counseling services for registered First Nations and recognized Inuit individuals.

What Is NIHB Counselling?

The Non-Insured Health Benefits (NIHB) Program is a federal health benefits program that provides coverage for eligible First Nations and Inuit people across Canada. Mental health counselling is one of the services available through the program and can help individuals access professional therapeutic support when needed.

Our therapists provide support for a wide range of concerns, including:

• Anxiety and chronic stress
• Depression and low mood
• Trauma and PTSD
• Grief and loss
• Relationship and family challenges
• Self-esteem and confidence issues
• Emotional regulation
• Life transitions and personal growth
• Intergenerational trauma
• Cultural identity and belonging

We believe counselling should be a safe, welcoming, and non-judgmental space where you can share your experiences, build resilience, and work toward meaningful change.
