Depression Counselling
Your journey to feeling better starts here.
Feeling Empty, Numb, Sad or Stuck
Counselling in English or French.
Some days it may be hard to get out of bed. Things you used to enjoy feel flat, and it can seem like nothing will change. If you’re feeling this way, please know it’s not a weakness and it’s not your fault. Depression is common and treatable, and reaching out is a brave first step. In depression counselling, we’ll meet you exactly where you are, with warmth and no pressure, and help you take small, manageable steps toward feeling like yourself again.
If you’re thinking about suicide or are in crisis, call or text 988 any time, or call 911.
Our sessions are available in-person at our Moncton office, virtually, or by phone for clients anywhere in Canada.
Is Depression Counselling Right for You?
You don’t have to hit rock bottom to reach out. Many people come to us feeling tired, flat or disconnected without realizing it was depression.
If any of these sound familiar, support could help:
You feel empty, numb or hopeless most days.
It’s hard to get out of bed, keep up with daily tasks, or care about things you used to love.
You’re more tired, irritable or tearful than usual.
You’ve pulled away from friends, family or activities.
A loss, like a job, a relationship or your health, has left you struggling to move forward.
You Deserve Support, Wherever You’re Starting From
We support teens (16+), adults and seniors, whether you’re facing a low period after a hard life event or you’ve lived with depression for years. There’s no right way to show up. You can come as you are.
How Depression Counselling Works at East Coast Flourish
We start where you are. Together we’ll gently explore what’s weighing on you, rebuild small routines that support your energy, and work with thoughts that keep you stuck. We use evidence-based approaches like CBT, ACT and behavioural activation, always at a pace that feels doable.
What We Can Help With:
Depression and Low Mood
When sadness or heaviness lingers for weeks or months. We help you understand what’s behind it and take gentle steps toward feeling better.
Emptiness, Numbness and Hopelessness
Feeling flat, disconnected, or like nothing will change. You don’t have to feel hopeful to start; we’ll hold hope for you until you can.
Low Energy and Motivation
When getting out of bed or doing simple tasks feels impossible. We start small, with steps that feel manageable.
Seasonal and Postpartum Depression
Depression that comes with darker months or after having a baby. Both are common and very treatable with the right support.
Depression After Job Loss, Illness or Life Changes
Big changes can shake your sense of who you are. We help you work through the loss and rebuild a sense of purpose.
Low Self-Worth and Self-Criticism
A harsh inner voice can keep you stuck. Together we’ll help you build kindness toward yourself and a steadier sense of worth.
Our Therapeutic Approaches:
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Helps you notice and gently challenge thoughts that keep you feeling low. You’ll build more balanced, hopeful ways of thinking.
Behavioural Activation
Small, doable actions that slowly bring energy and meaning back into your days. Feeling better often starts with doing, even a little.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Helps you make room for painful feelings while moving toward what matters to you. It’s about living fully, even on hard days.
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) Skills
Practical skills for coping with intense emotions and difficult moments. Helpful when feelings seem too big to manage.
Narrative Therapy
Helps you separate yourself from the problem and rewrite the story you tell about yourself. You are not your depression.
Person-Centred Therapy
A warm, accepting space where you set the pace. You’ll be heard without judgement, every step of the way.
