Britta Frombach,
Holistic Counselling
& Process Work
OWNER/THERAPIST
The owner of Phi Massage & Well-Being Center, Britta has been a lifelong student of exploring personal growth and well-being.
While meditating in yoga positions, Britta’s mom considered becoming a pastor before concentrating her interest in serving her community by pursuing a degree in Psychology. This led to lively and interesting discussions around the dinner table regarding the human experience. Through these influences, starting as early as the age of 11, Britta was reading books on religions of the world and texts on abnormal psychology, she was attending services of many different faiths and attending mind-expanding lectures, she was fascinated with the mind/body connection and was pursuing yoga or fitness and non-ordinary states of consciousness, all while spending hours of reflection under the skies of the Saskatchewan Plains.
Due to her own experiences with depression from a very young age, part of the driving force behind Britta’s curiosity was a motivation to seek relief from her, at times, incapacitating symptoms.
After years of personal study, in her late 20’s Britta found a mentor [Gila Golub] that helped to transform her relationship with depression and every other relationship in her life, beginning with her relationship to herself. This began an over two-decade mentorship which has led to ongoing self-guided continuing education and an evolution to private practice upon request for more than 15 years.
Britta has pursued both formal and informal study completing certification in a wide array of training and modalities on top of ongoing continuing education to maintain her designation as an RMT.
Certifications include:
• Gordon Neufeld Level I, II, III
• PSYCH-K ™- Basic, Advanced, Professionals
• Shadow Energetics with Darryl Gurney

Her approach is to assist clients to find their own internal guidance system in order to move through underlying trauma or childhood wounds. Britta has a very compassionate and involved approach that often has her clients experiencing transformations in their lives even after one session.

THERAPIST
Healing is rarely about fixing what is broken. More often, it is a journey of remembering who we are beneath the adaptations, protective patterns and wounds we developed to survive. My work as a therapist and facilitator is grounded in the belief that every symptom, emotion, and life challenge carries meaning and has something important to teach us.
For over three decades, my understanding of healing has been shaped by both professional experience and my own personal journey. As a Registered Nurse, I worked in surgical orthopaedics, community health, respiratory care, and special needs. My nursing career came to an unexpected end following a serious motor vehicle accident that left me living with chronic pain and significant physical limitations. The tremendous emotional , physical, and financial challenges that ensued for my young family was overwhelming. The grief, depression, and profound sense of loss became an invitation to begin a much deeper journey of inner transformation.
Although I pursued every avenue available through conventional medicine and complementary therapies, I discovered that true healing required more than treating physical symptoms. It required turning toward the emotional pain, grief, and loss that accompanied such a profound life transition. This experience transformed not only my understanding of health, but also the way I accompany others in their own healing.
Since 2013, I have had the privilege of studying and mentoring with Gila Golub, whose guidance profoundly influenced my understanding of emotional healing, self-compassion, and the unconscious. My ongoing work with Britta Frombach and other respected teachers such as Mark Wolynn has further deepened my appreciation of the intricate relationship between the nervous system, attachment, family systems, generational and attachment trauma, and the psyche.
My approach is informed by depth and Jungian Psychology, developmental attachment theory, Interpersonal Neurobiology, Family Constellation Therapy, as well as Polyvagal Theory. I am continually inspired by the work of James Hollis, Dr. Gordon Neufeld, Mark Wolynn, Bert Hellinger, James Hillman, Peter Levine, Brené Brown, Byron Katie, Debbie Ford, John Bradshaw, Eckhart Tolle, and many others who have explored the complexities of human development and transformation.
In our work together, I strive to create a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you feel safe enough to slow down, become curious, and gently explore your inner world. I believe many of the struggles we experience in adulthood—including anxiety, depression, chronic stress, relationship difficulties, perfectionism, and feelings of disconnection—are often rooted in early attachment experiences and unconscious patterns that once served to protect us.
Rather than viewing these patterns as something to eliminate, I see them as intelligent adaptations deserving of understanding and compassion. As these protective strategies are acknowledged and honored, new possibilities for healing, resilience, and authentic living begin to emerge.
My work integrates a variety of evidence-informed and experiential approaches, including PSYCH-K®, Family Constellation Therapy, Inner Child Work, Polyvagal-informed nervous system regulation, and somatic practices. These modalities support clients in accessing both conscious awareness and unconscious patterns, allowing healing to occur on emotional, relational, physical, and spiritual levels.
I do not believe healing is about becoming someone different. Rather, it is about reconnecting with the parts of yourself that have always been present but may have become hidden beneath trauma, conditioning, or life’s inevitable challenges.
It is my privilege to walk alongside individuals as they discover greater self-awareness, self-compassion, and the capacity to live with more authenticity, connection, and inner freedom. My goal it to create a gentle, supportive space where clients feel safe to explore unconscious patterns childhood wounds, chronic stress, and life transitions. I believe that lasting healing occurs when we reconnect with ourselves and embrace the transformative relationship between mind, body, and spirit.

How do I choose the right therapist for me?
It is important to have an idea of what your seeking assistance with and to then research who might be a fit with what you are looking for. Asking friends for referrals if you feel comfortable with that approach can be very helpful as well. Once you have a few names of therapists, and you’ve done some research, it is important to get a sense of which therapist resonates the most with all the things you’re looking for as you learn more about them. It may take some time to ‘interview’ more than one therapist or even for more than one session before getting a sense of if it is a good fit for you. There are so many therapists and so many modalities and only one you. Take care to take the time to find the fit for you.
How many sessions do I need?
There are different approaches to this in therapy. Britta Frombachs’ approach is client-driven. She may make some suggestions from her experience, but ultimately it is up to the client to get a sense of what works for them.
How do I know that this will work for me?
Everyone is different. However, when you feel comfortable with your therapist, and the right treatment approaches are used, there is a very good chance that you will experience transformation. Britta has a great deal of experience assisting her clients to develop trust in themselves and to feel empowered to make changes that support their growth.
What will happen during sessions?
At the initial visit, the reasons that you have decided to come for counselling will be discussed, and then a reflection of how you arrived to these issues will be considered. This will be built upon in subsequent sessions.
