Access mental health support with online counselling in Canada. Find a therapist or counsellor through secure, convenient online counselling for Canadians.
Online therapy in Canada makes mental health care more accessible by allowing Canadians to connect with licensed therapists and counsellors, including registered social workers, psychologists, and registered psychotherapists, from the comfort of their homes. Whether you're dealing with anxiety and depression, burnout, grief and loss, or life transitions, virtual counselling creates a safe and confidential space to address your mental health concerns and unique needs with flexibility and ease.
Our therapy options include individual therapy, couples counselling, and family support, guided by experienced mental health professionals. Therapists provide mental health services using a range of approaches such as Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), mindfulness techniques, talk therapy, couples therapy, and more. Each therapy session is tailored to meet the specific needs of the client, whether you're seeking support for trauma, co-parenting issues, or other mental health challenges. Therapists and counsellors bring years of clinical experience and are committed to offering therapeutic care suited to your unique journey.
Online therapy services are available across Canada and may be offered alongside in-person therapy, depending on your location and preferences. Sessions may be covered by insurance; sliding scale fees are also available.
