Kingsway Counselling

Kingsway Counselling We understand that living with anxiety, depression, trauma or other mental health issues can be very challenging.

Our areas of focus are depression and anxiety counselling, trauma for individuals, couples therapy, family therapy and child therapy. Formerly operated as Cynthia Veniot & Associates. Cynthia has grown her team of Licensed Therapists and added a new location in the Simply for Life building on Rothesay Ave, Saint John. The growth has created a need for a change in name for the business - 'Kingsway Counselling'. We have offices in Quispamsis and Saint John + offering virtual appointments. Since our name is close to another church in the area we wanted the public to know that Kingsway Counselling is not affiliated with a church or religion. Our two main specialties are depression and anxiety counselling, however, we also work consistently in marriage counselling, family counselling, children counselling, trauma counselling, PTSD counselling, and life transitions.

This Thrive Thursday, we’re celebrating something simple: taking a moment for yourself.

Healing doesn’t always begin in the therapy room. Sometimes it starts in the quiet pause before, like the warmth of a cup in your hands, a slow breath, and a chance to settle.

If you’re visiting us, you’re always welcome to help yourself to a warm beverage in our reception area. Consider it a small invitation to soften before your session begins. ☕️

Breathe & Bloom: A workshop where wellness meets creativity.

Life can feel overwhelming. The mental load, the endless to-dos, the pressure to “do it all”. Sometimes it’s hard to even remember to take care of yourself.

With International Women’s Day approaching, we’ve partnered with Galbraith Florists to offer a gentle, hands-on workshop guided by floral designer Oksana and our clinician Stephanie. This session is designed to give women a space to pause, breathe, and reconnect. Together, we’ll explore the theme of “Overwhelm & the Importance of Self-Care” through mindful conversation, supportive connection, and creating your own floral arrangement.

This is a chance to:
🤎 Take a moment just for you, without judgment or distractions
🤎 Reflect on your needs and boundaries in a safe, supportive group
🤎 Connect with other women experiencing similar challenges
🤎 Leave with a tangible reminder of self-care and creativity

Whether you come for the flowers, the conversation, or simply a quiet moment to yourself, this workshop offers a warm, welcoming space to slow down, reconnect, and nurture yourself.

Spaces are limited, so be sure to reserve your spot for this special session and gift yourself the pause you deserve.

This Thrive Thursday, we’re reflecting on the pressure we put on ourselves to do things perfectly, or not at all.

Growth doesn’t always come in big leaps. Sometimes it looks like showing up in small, imperfect ways. And often, the standards we hold ourselves to are far harsher than the ones we offer others.

If you’ve been feeling behind, stuck, or not “doing enough,” this one’s for you.

Winter can be beautiful with its fresh snow, quiet mornings, and light reflecting off everything. But it can also feel heavy.

The darker days, disrupted routines, cancelled plans, mornings spent shovelling, and days spent indoors. It all starts to add up. If this season has felt harder than you expected, here are a few gentle things to consider:

Try keeping a routine — waking, eating, and sleeping at consistent times helps steady your nervous system and gives your days a bit more predictability when everything else feels disrupted.

Seek light intentionally — natural light supports mood and energy. Opening blinds early or stepping outside midday can help signal to your brain that it’s daytime, even when it feels dim.

Lower the bar — when energy dips, self-expectations often don’t. Letting “good enough” be enough reduces pressure and protects against burnout.

Stay connected — even one text or short check-in can interrupt isolation and remind your brain that you’re not alone.

Move your body gently — light movement can release built-up stress and improve mood without requiring intense motivation.

Most importantly, be compassionate with yourself. This season won’t last forever, even if it feels long right now. If the heaviness feels like more than you want to carry alone, we’re here when you’re ready to talk. 🤍

We’re excited to introduce Breathe & Bloom!

This International Women’s Day, Kingsway Counselling and Galbraith Florists are coming together to create an intimate afternoon where creativity meets self-reflection.

Join Oksana as she guides you in creating your own floral arrangement, and Stephanie as she leads a relaxed conversation about self-compassion, boundaries, and reclaiming your time.

What to Expect During the Workshop 🌸

An hour of floral design: Oksana will guide participants in creating their own arrangements, using the process as a metaphor for life by embracing trial and error, letting go of perfectionism, and celebrating unique outcomes.

An hour of conversation: Stephanie will facilitate a relaxed, conversational group exploring topics like self-compassion, boundaries, navigating overwhelm, and the importance of reaching out for support. She may interject organically during the floral session if it complements the discussion.

The workshop provides a supportive and safe environment for all participants. A private space will be available for anyone who needs a quiet moment to step away, and all therapeutic discussions are handled with confidentiality and care. The small, intimate group setting is designed to foster connection, shared experiences, and a genuine sense of belonging.

Workshop Details:

🌿 Date: Saturday, March 7, from 3pm - 5pm
🌿 Cost: $125 per participant
🌿 Refreshments provided (coffee & tea)
🌿 Limited spots for a personalized, meaningful experience

This is your chance to pause, slow down, and reconnect with yourself while creating something beautiful. You’ll leave with a tangible reminder of your creativity and resilience, a renewed sense of calm, and the support of other women navigating similar challenges.

Spaces are limited! Reserve your spot today and celebrate yourself this International Women’s Day: https://galbraithflorist.com/breathe-bloom-workshop
