About Us
About Asentriarc
Where healing feels human.
Asentriarc is a trauma-informed therapy and wellness practice created to support the whole person—mind, body, and nervous system.
We exist for those carrying more than anyone can see.
The ones navigating the aftermath of adversity while still showing up for work, life, and relationships.
Whether you’re deep in survival or quietly burning out behind high-functioning, this is a space where you don’t have to carry it all alone.
Asentriarc was created to change how healing happens.
Not only for individuals, but also for communities and the wellness industry as a whole.
After years of trauma work, we noticed a pattern.
Traditional systems often miss the mark.
Therapy can feel cold. Wellness spaces can feel performative.
They may treat the mind or the body, but rarely both—and almost never the whole person.
We knew there had to be another way.
One that honours the nervous system, welcomes complexity, and leads with presence instead of pressure.
Here, care is relational.
Rest is sacred.
And healing unfolds at the pace of safety.
We offer:
• 1:1 therapy
• Group support
• Body-led healing
• Seasonal retreats
Every offering is designed to be attuned, human, and deeply respectful of your story.
Asentriarc means where ascent meets matriarchy
A space for rising that is grounded in care, depth, and nurturing leadership.
You don’t need to be fixed.
You need to be held. Seen.
Safe enough to remember who you are.
That’s what we’re here for.
To offer deeply attuned, trauma-informed care that honours your mind, body, and nervous system.
To create spaces where you can rest, reconnect, and rise—in your own time and in your own way.
Asentriarc exists to support your healing today while building a broader wellness movement centred on care, safety, and community.
Our Mission
At Asentriarc, we’re building more than a therapy practice.
We’re creating a movement rooted in safety, attunement, and authentic human connection.
Our long-term vision is to grow into a full-spectrum healing hub that supports both mind and body.
This includes expanding our team, offering more holistic and somatic services, and ultimately creating a therapeutic spa and retreat space where rest is not earned—it’s honoured.
Whether you come for therapy, breathwork, or simply a space to exhale, we want you to feel like you belong.
We envision a world where healing is accessible, inclusive, and built to support even the most high-functioning among us. Because high performance is often a response to pain, not a sign of its absence.
You don’t have to carry it all.
And you don’t have to wait until you break to be cared for.
Our Vision
Attunement
We lead with presence. We listen beyond words, follow nervous system cues, and meet people exactly where they are.
Trauma-Informed Care
Healing happens in safety, not pressure. Consent, trust, and nervous system regulation are at the heart of all we do.
Relational Integrity
The relationship is the therapy. We prioritize realness, boundaries, and human connection.
Inclusivity
All bodies, identities, and lived experiences are welcome here. Healing must be accessible, not reserved for the privileged.
Anti-Oppression
We actively challenge systems that cause harm. We stay accountable through ongoing unlearning and repair.
Growth Without Force
We honour change at the pace of safety and self-trust. Healing should never feel rushed or forced.
Leadership with Heart
We lead with care, not control. Our model of leadership is matriarchal, collaborative, and rooted in empathy.
Our Core Values
Why Trauma-Informed Care Matters
Because healing doesn’t happen under pressure. It happens in safety.
At Asentriarc, we understand that trauma isn’t just what happened to you.
It’s how your body and mind adapted in order to survive.
Trauma-informed care means we meet those adaptations with compassion, not judgment.
We don’t pathologize coping. We get curious about it.
In our space, your nervous system leads.
You won’t be rushed, pushed, or asked to perform healing.
Instead, we focus on building the kind of relationship and environment where real, lasting change can take root—on your terms, at your pace, and in a way that feels true to you.
What We Do
At Asentriarc, we offer trauma-informed therapy and wellness services designed to support healing on every level—emotional, physical, and relational.
Whether you’re moving through trauma, burnout, anxiety, or identity shifts, our work centers on one thing: helping you feel safe enough to reconnect with yourself.
Current Offerings:
• Individual Therapy for Adults
• Virtual Breathwork & Mindfulness
• Restorative Yoga & Somatic Movement
• TCM-Informed Nutritional Support
• Nervous System Care for High-Functioning Overwhelm
Coming Soon:
• Group Therapy & Healing Circles
• Workshops & Community Gatherings
Every service is grounded in attunement, rest, and relational safety.
Because healing isn’t one-size-fits-all, and you deserve care that meets you where you are and honours how you heal.

Meet the Founder
Sarah Ferland Doherty, RSW
Founder • Trauma Therapist
Wellness Visionary & Matriarchal Leader in Human-Centred Healing
Sarah founded Asentriarc to reimagine what healing could look and feel like—not just for individuals, but for the wellness field as a whole.
After years of trauma therapy, she saw the gaps. Care was often clinical, rushed, and disconnected from the body. She imagined something more—a space where healing is relational, rest is honoured, and the whole person is supported: mind, body, and nervous system.
With experience in both clinical practice and hospitality, Sarah brings a rare dual perspective. Her approach is grounded in science and held with deep human warmth. Her leadership is attuned, nurturing, and boldly expansive.
Asentriarc is the embodiment of that vision.
A place for high achievers quietly burning out.
For helpers who rarely ask for help.
For those who long to be held, not handled.
Today, Sarah leads with a long view:
To grow a full-spectrum healing hub.
To bring trauma-informed care into wellness and hospitality.
To help build a world where people don’t have to wait until they break to be supported.
“I don’t believe in fixing people. I believe in helping them remember who they are.”
Join the Movement
Whether you’re just beginning your healing journey or ready to deepen it, Asentriarc is here to walk beside you.
We believe rest is radical.
Healing is relational.
And safety should never have to be earned.
If you’re seeking therapy that feels attuned, empowering, and deeply human, you’re in the right place.
You don’t need to have it all figured out.
You just need to take the first step.
We’ll meet you there.
