Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
I have been a therapist for many years and in many settings. In describing my practice to prospective clients, I like them to know that we work in three intersecting and overlapping domains-present, past and process. In the present, we focus on how you are able to care for yourself and for others, cultivate relationships with self and other in ways that are enriching and not depleting. Using the past, we can come to understand how you show up in relationships, as informed by patterns laid out in your family of origin but in the hopes that you can come to understand and then do differently if you want, rather than acting from a place of default and habit. And finally, we can use process therapies such as EMDR and Deep Brain Reorienting, to help you truly process and move past your past experiences and help you to shed the weight of past trauma. I use a pragmatic and interactive style to collaborate with clients to assist them in choosing the therapeutic path that fits best for them. Therapy is about healing and I value using trusted and effective approaches to help you reach your goals in therapy in a timely way that allows you to move on from our relationship into living your life fully and completely. I offer a free, 30-minute initial consult call so we can connect and see how we might be a good fit. Email me to schedule that today!

Taking the step to seek support is a courageous move, and I want to applaud you for it. I know everyone has a different story, and I'm here to honor and respect yours. As your therapist, my focus is on creating a collaborative and caring space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions.

Resilient Roots Therapy - Social Work and Psychotherapy Services
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MA, RP
At Resilient Roots Therapy, we are person-centred and trauma-informed, meaning our work will be grounded in respect, empathy, and your own unique strengths. We integrate a variety of effective modalities, including narrative therapy, somatic work, Mind-Body Attunement, neuro-linguistic approaches, and internal family systems. These forms of therapy are highly effective in normalizing the mind-body connection and supporting the healing of emotional wounds, including intergenerational trauma.
I have been in the mental health field for 11 years. Throughout my career, I’ve been on my own journey of identity learning, understanding that identity is something we come into rather than something we find. As a queer Black woman, I am keenly aware of the unique challenges faced by people of colour, queer, trans, and non-binary folx. My intent is to not only create a safe space for all my clients but also a brave space where genuine transformation can occur.

I believe therapy is a wonderful journey with a trusted Therapist. I have been through therapy myself so I understand it from the clinician’s point of you as well as from a client’s point of view. I think everyone deserves to feel good and reach his or her full potential. I look forward to joining you on your journey 🙂

Monica S. Scarborough, CCHt.
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist CCHt, C.L.C, C.S.C., ORDM, Author
At Mystical Aqoostix, my mission is to help you get to the absolute root cause of emotional hurdles, stress, and trauma rather than simply managing surface symptoms. True healing is a holistic journey that requires balancing the conscious mind, the subconscious mind, and the body’s natural energetic frequencies. By combining talk therapy and clinical hypnotherapy with metaphysics, somatic breathwork, mudras, and vocalized mantras, we help you see your life experiences from a completely new perspective. We utilize targeted tuning forks and specific sound frequencies to center your nervous system and shift your inner vibrations. Whether you are seeking individual transformation, couples alignment, or family counseling, I provide a safe, nurturing, and judgment-free sanctuary to help you release what no more serves you, reclaim your personal power, and find lasting peace.
