Counselling Services for
Maple Hills Residents

Life in Maple Hills has a rhythm all its own — peaceful, grounded, and connected to the land and community. It’s a place where neighbours still wave, children play outdoors, and the air feels just a little cleaner. Communities like Berry Mills, Indian Mountain, Gallagher Ridge, and Irishtown, now part of Maple Hills, offer the calm of country living without being too far from the conveniences of Moncton. Yet even in a setting that feels relaxed and familiar, life’s challenges can still weigh heavily — stress, relationship strain, family pressures, and the quiet isolation that can come with small-town living.

In a close-knit community where everyone tends to know one another, it can be challenging to reach out for help or find someone outside your circle to talk to. The pace of rural life may be slower, but responsibilities, financial pressures, and emotional challenges are just as real. For many people in communities like McQuade, Dundas, New Scotland, and Lakeville, having access to safe, confidential counselling support can make all the difference in maintaining balance and well-being.

SAGE offers a supportive space to explore challenges, learn coping skills, and create meaningful change. Our services are confidential and available in three ways: in-person, by phone, and online.

To help you feel supported from the start, we offer SAGE SmartMatch® — a personalized process that pairs you with the Masters or PhD-level counsellor best aligned with your needs, personality, goals, and schedule. Because with counselling, the right fit truly matters.

Why Maple Hills Residents Reach Out for Counselling

Even in a close-knit community, many people try to manage life’s challenges on their own. Common reasons people in the Maple Hills area reach out for counselling include:

Feeling overwhelmed or struggling to cope with stress

Identity, self-esteem, belonging, or personal growth exploration​

Children and teen mental health, emotional, social pressures, or academic stress

What to Expect in Your First Counselling Session

Starting counselling can feel like a big step, and some people in Maple Hills 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.
