Welcome to Compassiviste Dialogues. I'm Ali, your host, and my mission with this podcast is to shed light on critical social and environmental issues worldwide, exploring avenues for positive change.

In this powerful interview, counselor and author Sabrina Trobak reveals how unconscious core beliefs like “not good enough” or “not valued” are passed down generationally—and how they create the foundation for lifelong anxiety. Learn about the holistic therapy model that changed Sabrina’s life and is helping thousands find peace, healing, and emotional freedom. If you're struggling with self-doubt, overthinking, or fear of rejection, this video will help you shift from survival to self-acceptance.

ABOUT GUEST:

Sabrina Trobak, a lifelong resident of Fort St. John, returned to her hometown in 2010 after completing her education. She holds a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology and has received extensive training in family violence,  and resolving past trauma utilizing a holistic therapy approach focused on the core belief not good enough, not important. Additionally, Sabrina is a published author of various psychology-based papers, contributing to the field.

Prior to her counselling career, Sabrina earned a Bachelor’s degree in Education and dedicated over 20 years to the public school system. During her tenure, she taught across all educational divisions—elementary, junior high, and senior high—and served as a learning assistance teacher, vice principal, and school counsellor.

In 2023, Sabrina published her book, "Not Good Enough: Understanding Your Core Belief & Anxiety," which serves as a valuable resource for individuals seeking to enhance their mental health, particularly those who may not have access to counselling services.

Since founding Trobak Holistic Counselling in 2010, Sabrina has provided counselling services and has been a Clinical Supervisor since 2012, guiding both clients and fellow professionals in their journeys toward healing and personal growth.
