Meet Our Team
Our multidisciplinary team of practitioners and staff deliver a holistic approach to care with kindness and compassion.

We Offer Holistic Care
At We Thrive, we work within a Circle of Care Model. We understand that people heal in complex and individualized ways. What is effective, supportive and healing for one person, may not be for another. So our work with our clients is as varied as the individuals we serve. Our team collaborates and consults with one another, to ensure we offer care that harnesses the collective expertise of our team and our community.
We work alongside our clients, honouring the knowledge each has of their own physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health. We present options and information, and practice deep listening, to help clients have agency in their own healthcare decisions. We witness transformations in our clients’ health and happiness every day, and we are humbled by this and grateful to be a part of it.

Cristol & Sarah
Co-Founders & Best Friends
In 2016, the idea for this centre was placed on both our hearts – unbeknownst to the other – within the same 24-hour period. With a synchronicity like that, you don’t say no. Years later, we are proud, beyond words, of how this kindhearted team has taken the original idea and created what We Thrive is today.
Thank you, thank you, thank you ♥
The Studio
We believe that people heal more deeply when they feel connected to a community that cares for them. Inside We Thrive, our studio is the heartbeat of our centre. Clients gather regularly, laughing and learning together. Over the years, thousands of people have enjoyed our popular programming.
