At SAGE Counselling Services, we provide caring, evidence-based counselling in Riverview. Our approach is warm, respectful, and grounded in best practices that help people build emotional well-being, resilience, and healthy relationships.
Riverview is a close-knit, family-focused community where people value connection, nature, and a balanced way of life. Yet even in a supportive town, life can feel heavy at times. Between work, family commitments, school activities, and personal expectations, it’s normal to feel overwhelmed or unsure of your next steps. You don’t have to go through it alone.
Living in Riverview offers a quieter, calmer pace than neighbouring Moncton, but that doesn’t mean life is without challenges. We’re here to provide a safe, confidential space to talk, heal, grow, and find the support you need — at a pace that feels right for you.
Riverview is known for its warm community spirit, nature trails, and family-focused lifestyle. Yet many people feel pressure to keep up with a full schedule while managing their own emotional well-being in silence. Even in a supportive environment, it can be difficult to ask for help.

Many clients in Riverview choose a blend of all three depending on their needs and availability.
Starting counselling can feel like a big step, and some people in Riverview may feel nervous before their first session — that’s completely normal. Your first appointment will be a conversation focused on gathering information to get to know you. Your counsellor will explore your service needs and your goals in counselling and will provide the opportunity to share in a safe and confidential environment.
There’s no pressure to share more than you’re ready for. You and your counsellor will begin to explore coping skills tailored to your specific needs and circumstances.
With SAGE SmartMatch®, we help ensure the counsellor you meet is a good fit for your needs. Most people finish their first session feeling heard, supported, and encouraged about their path forward.
