Your journey to feeling better starts here.

Are you feeling…

Overwhelmed, Exhausted, Anxious or Stretched Too Thin?

Maybe you’re the one holding everything together: work, family, relationships and everyone else’s needs. Maybe you’re going through a big change like pregnancy, becoming a mom, infertility or menopause, and it’s harder than you expected. Or maybe you’ve just lost touch with yourself along the way. Women’s counselling gives you a space that’s just for you, to slow down, be heard and feel more like yourself again.

Our sessions are available in-person at our Moncton office for clients across Greater Moncton, including Dieppe, Riverview, Shediac and surrounding areas, or virtually and by phone anywhere in Canada.

Counselling also offered in French. Thérapie aussi offerte en français.

When to seek support

Is Women’s Counselling Right for You?

You don’t have to wait until you’re at a breaking point. Many women come to us when they realize they’ve been putting themselves last for far too long.

If any of these sound familiar, support could help:

You feel anxious, overwhelmed or like you’re always running on empty.
You’re struggling emotionally during pregnancy or after having a baby.
Infertility, pregnancy loss or the road to parenthood is taking a toll.
You’re caring for everyone else and have nothing left for yourself.
Life changes, relationships or self-doubt have left you feeling unlike yourself.

Who We Help

Support for Women Through Every Stage of Life

We work with women 16+ of all backgrounds and identities, from young women finding their way to new and expecting moms, women facing infertility, and women navigating midlife and menopause. Whatever you’re carrying, you’ll find warmth, understanding and no judgement.

How we work

How Women’s Counselling Works at East Coast Flourish

We start with what matters most to you. Together we’ll explore what’s weighing on you, build practical tools for stress and big emotions, and make room for your own needs again. We use evidence-based approaches like CBT, ACT and EMDR, always at a pace that feels right.

What We Can Help With:

Pregnancy and Postpartum Mental Health

Anxiety, low mood or feeling overwhelmed during pregnancy or after birth is common and treatable. We support you through this big transition.

Infertility and the Road to Parenthood

The ups and downs of trying to conceive, IVF, adoption or pregnancy loss can feel isolating. We offer a caring space to process it all.

Anxiety, Stress and Overwhelm

When your mind won’t slow down and the to-do list never ends. We help you find calm and balance.

Depression and Low Self-Worth

Feeling flat, hopeless or hard on yourself. We help you rebuild confidence and reconnect with what brings you joy.

Caregiver Burnout and the Mental Load

Juggling work, family and caring for others can leave you depleted. We help you set boundaries and protect your energy.

Life Transitions and Midlife Changes

Career changes, relationship shifts, an empty nest or menopause can bring up a lot. We help you move through change with clarity.

Our Therapeutic Approaches:

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

Helps you notice anxious or self-critical thoughts and replace them with more balanced, supportive ones.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Helps you make room for difficult feelings while moving toward what matters most to you.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

Helps your brain process painful experiences, including birth trauma and past hurts, so they feel less intense.

Somatic and Polyvagal-Informed Therapy

Gentle body-based work that calms your nervous system and helps you feel grounded.

Mindfulness and Self-Compassion

Simple practices to quiet your inner critic and treat yourself with the kindness you give others.

Person-Centred Therapy

A warm, judgement-free space where you set the pace and feel truly heard.

"Contacting Ann to book my first appointment was one of the most meaningful acts of self-care I have ever done for myself. What felt like a small step at the time became a true turning point in my life. Since that first session, my life has transformed in such a positive way, and I am no longer the same person — in the best possible sense. I am deeply grateful for the growth, clarity, and healing I’ve experienced through this work."
