 Counselling Services

Our counselling services are not meant to provide crisis support. Any requests for new appointments for counselling will be responded to as soon as possible and there may be a delay in responding during evenings, weekends or holidays. We will work with you to set up a time for short-term or long-term counselling that meets your needs. 

This is a service offered by Northern Bridge Community Partnership to communities in northern and remote communities where social services are limited, and as such there is no fee for counselling sessions. Our counselling services are available for youth and adults. Counselling is provided virtually using video, phone or chat.
