Sara Martin Women's Health collaborative toronto

Sara Martin BA, BEd

Owner | Facilitator | Sound Healing Therapist

Sara Martin is a lifelong learner and passionate musician who has sung in choirs for many years. She holds a Grade 4 singing certification from the Royal Conservatory of Music. After experiencing chronic stress and burnout, she turned to music as a source of healing, which led her to explore the transformative power of sound healing. She is currently expanding her expertise through studies at Toronto Sound Therapy. In her practice, Sara uses crystal singing bowls, a drum, her voice, and chimes to help others calm their nervous systems and find balance through sound.

Sara is the owner and facilitator of the Women’s Health Collaborative. She received an Honours BA in English from the University of Toronto and a BEd from OISE. Beginning at the age of 12, she worked alongside her mother as a part-time receptionist at Resto Clean, witnessing nearly four decades of the loving care her mother brought to clients. Inspired by this legacy, and drawing on her 17-year career in education and experience running multiple home-based businesses, Sara brings a unique blend of warmth, professionalism, and vision to create a nurturing space for healing and connection.

Triptta Neb MA

Wellness Practitioner, Women’s Health Collaborative | Founder, Recalibrate with Triptta

After two decades in a high-pressure corporate career, I came to understand that outward success without inner alignment is not truly sustainable. My healing journey began while I was still designing strategies for multinational organizations, coaching CEOs, and developing global leaders — all while carrying deep personal trauma, chronic stress, and a disconnect from my authentic self.

In 2008, I began exploring mind-body practices that would ultimately transform my life. Yoga, breathwork, Reiki, EFT (tapping), and energy healing became more than certifications — they became essential daily tools that helped me recover from trauma, release impostor syndrome, and break free from patterns of survival mode.

Today, through my private sessions at the Women’s Health Collaborative and my practice, Recalibrate with Triptta, I support women who are ready to prioritize their well-being — to rest, restore, and reconnect with themselves. My approach blends ancient Eastern wisdom with modern neuroscience to regulate the nervous system, balance energy, and create meaningful, lasting change.

If you’re ready to feel more connected, calm, and clear — I’m here to hold that space with you.

Sarah Pitters-Caswell

Sarah Pitters-Caswell MACP, RP (Qualifying)

Sarah is a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO), a certified Professional Cancer Coach, and an Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher (E-RYT). She brings a calm, integrative approach to therapy, blending evidence-based modalities with body-based practices that support both insight and nervous system care.

Her clinical work draws on Emotion-Focused Therapy, Somatic Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Trauma-Informed Mindful Movement.

Sarah works with individuals, couples, and families navigating:

  • Trauma & PTSD
  • Anxiety & Depression
  • Work & Career Stress
  • Chronic Illness & Caregiving
  • Relationship & Family Conflict
  • Burnout & Life Transitions

In therapy, Sarah invites clients to tune in to more than just their thoughts, noticing how the body holds stress, tension, and emotion beneath the surface. From breath patterns to subtle shutdown cues, these signals become guideposts for healing. Her approach is collaborative, gentle, and always paced to meet you where you are.

Sarah understands the emotional weight of serious illness and high-performance pressure and brings this lived experience into the therapy room with empathy and care.

At the core of Sarah’s work is a belief in connection, curiosity, and compassion, fostering a space where growth seems possible, even amid grief, uncertainty, or change.

Sarah receives regular clinical supervision following CRPO standards to ensure the delivery of ethical, high-quality care. For more about her credentials and training, visit her website: interocare.ca
