About Molly Frechette

Mission Statement
My mission is to offer accessible, affirming counseling that helps people reconnect with themselves, their bodies, and the relationships and communities that sustain them. I recognize that healing is shaped by our histories, cultures, environments, and access to support. Through compassionate relationships, shared decision-making, and attention to the whole person, I support greater self-trust, belonging, and meaningful change.​

Values

• Relationship and belonging: I recognize our interdependence. I support relationships that offer safety, mutual care, and room to be ourselves, while respecting each person’s boundaries and chosen connections.

• Respect and self-determination: Each person brings knowledge of their own life. I honor consent, cultural identity, lived experience, and the right to define what healing means and how to pursue it.

• Reciprocity and responsibility: I commit to giving back to the people and communities whose knowledge supports my work through attribution, fair compensation, and support for Indigenous-led priorities.

• Balance and sustainable care: I honor the connections among body, emotions, thought, meaning, and daily circumstances. Rest, limits, creativity, and joy deserve space alongside responsibility and growth.

• Collective care and access: I work to reduce barriers to counseling and recognize the effects of poverty, discrimination, colonization, and exclusion. My work includes helping people identify the support and resources they deserve.

• Continuing education and cultural humility: I prioritize Indigenous-led continuing education and clinical consultation to strengthen my ability to serve Indigenous clients and communities. I commit to learning about each community’s distinct histories, cultures, strengths, and contemporary experiences, and translating that learning into respectful, responsive care. I remain open to correction and accountable for how I apply what I learn.

• ​Accountability and repair: I take responsibility for my impact, welcome feedback, acknowledge mistakes, and work toward repair. Trust grows through consistent actions and honest relationships.

• ​Relationship with land and future generations: I recognize that human wellbeing depends on the wellbeing of land, water, and other living beings. I consider how my choices affect the communities and generations that follow.
