Virtual Counselling for Individuals, Couples & Families in Moncton

Therapy That Fits Your Life — Without the Commute

You don’t have to leave your house in Moncton to get the support you need. Our licensed New Brunswick therapists offer secure, professional online therapy — so you can talk to someone who understands, from the comfort and privacy of your own home.

Real Therapy. Real Connection. 100% Online.

When you think of virtual therapy, you might picture a faceless app or a random therapist from somewhere across the country.

We're not that.

At Laura Gatien & Associates, all of our therapists are real, qualified professionals based right here in New Brunswick — and every single one offers online counselling.

WHAT WE HELP WITH

We support teens, adults, couples and parents with issues like:

  • Anxiety & panic

  • Depression or low mood

  • Stress & burnout

  • Grief & loss

  • Parenting and family issues

  • Relationship challenges

  • Life transitions

  • Self-esteem and confidence

  • Trauma-informed support

Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, stress, trauma or just feeling stuck, we can help. And we can start this week.

Online Therapy That Feels Human — Because It Is

This isn’t a chatroom. It’s not AI. It’s not an algorithm pairing you with a random name.

This is real therapy with real people — licensed New Brunswick therapists who listen, understand, and are uniquely matched to your needs. 

When you book virtual therapy with us, you’re getting:

  • A real, local therapist — not a corporate provider network

  • Personalized onboarding with a human touch

  • Access to local resources when you need them

  • A trauma-informed, relationship-focused approach to therapy

You deserve a therapist who gets you.

We’ve learned that therapy works best when you feel confident in your therapist and the direction you’re going. That’s why our approach starts with clarity and continues with care.

What you can expect:

Leadership: Having delivered over 75,000 sessions since 2018, you’ll work with someone who knows the way forward. We’ll help you set realistic goals and map out a plan, so therapy feels less overwhelming and more empowering.

Relationship: We work hard to earn your trust. Your therapist will meet you with warmth, consistency and a genuine commitment to your growth, not judgment.

Creativity: We’ll help you uncover new tools and strategies that work for you. Whether you're navigating anxiety, trauma, burnout, ADHD, relationship stress or something else, we’ll meet you where you are and help you move forward.

Yes. 100%.

We’re a legitimate therapy clinic with two physical locations in New Brunswick, and every therapist on our team is fully trained, licensed, and experienced. Whether in-person or online, you’re getting the same quality of care.

The only difference? You get to show up in your slippers.

Is virtual therapy legit?

Who is virtual therapy for?

Our clients are students, parents, professionals, caregivers and rural residents who want support that fits their lives. With virtual therapy, you get:

  • Fast access (often same-week appointments)

  • More flexibility for your schedule and location

  • Comfort and privacy from home — no commute, no waiting rooms

  • The same quality of care as in-person therapy

You don’t need to come to us — we come to you.

Why choose virtual therapy?

Online counselling can be a great fit for:

  • Rural clients with limited local options

  • Busy professionals or parents who can’t easily make time to drive to an office

  • People with anxiety, accessibility concerns, or health conditions

  • Students who move between cities but want to stay with one therapist

  • Anyone who prefers privacy, comfort, and convenience

How much does online therapy in Moncton cost?

Individual Therapy sessions with a registered social worker (RSW) or licensed counselling therapist (LCT) are $150 for 50 minutes. Couples, family & specialty virtual sessions, such as EMDR and ART, are $160.

Is online therapy covered by insurance?

Our counselling fees are not covered by Medicare but are covered by many extended health insurance plans, similarly to in-person therapy. 

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.
