Victim Services - Miramichi

All victims of crime in New Brunswick who are required to testify in court may be eligible to receive court support counselling. Additional short term counselling may be available to victims of violent crime through the Compensation for Victims of Crime program.

The purpose of court support counselling is to help you give evidence in court. It usually begins once the trial date is set. Victim Services can refer you to see a registered therapist of your choice.

Counselling sessions must specifically address the effects of the crime but therapists must not discuss the actual facts of the offence with you.

If you are the victim of a violent crime, you may be eligible for additional short term counselling, which is a benefit under the Compensation for Victims of Crime

Program.
