Insurance Coverage

At Rising Strong – Nurse Psychotherapy, we know that navigating insurance can be an important part of accessing mental health and addiction support. Our focus is on providing compassionate, evidence‑informed nursing care that meets you where you are.

At this time, direct billing to insurance companies isn’t available. However, many clients can submit their receipts for reimbursement through their extended health benefits. If you’re unsure about your coverage, we’re happy to help you understand what questions to ask your provider so you can make an informed decision.

Payment is due in full at the time of your appointment.

Non‑Insured Health Benefits (NIHB) Coverage

Rising Strong – Nurse Psychotherapy is an approved provider with the Non‑Insured Health Benefits (NIHB) program. This means that eligible First Nations and Inuit clients can access counselling at no cost, and direct billing is available through NIHB.

If you are unsure about your eligibility or how NIHB works, we can walk through the process together. You are welcome to reach out with any questions about:

• How to confirm your NIHB coverage
• What information you may need before your first appointment
• How sessions are billed through the program

Our goal is to make accessing support as simple and respectful as possible, honoring your autonomy, your story, and the strengths you carry.
