It can be a gradual and slippery slope into the realm of disordered eating. If this is something that you are concerned about for yourself or someone around you, we would encourage you to take any action that you can:

Open up a discussion with them or with yourself

See what action they or you are willing to take

Any steps are important and can change the trajectory of the future.

If you are looking for professional support, we would be honored to be considered as a potential resource.

We are accepting new clients on an ongoing basis, depending on the availability of the specific therapist. The easiest way to connect with us is through our online booking system, and you can also reach out to our intake support staff anytime using the links in our bio.

Wishing you health and wellness,
The Sana Psyc Team

The answer to yesterday’s riddle was: NOTHING!

Sometimes our non-verbal responses are more powerful than our verbal ones and it might be most appropriate to listen rather than add to the conversation.

Obviously we don’t mean saying nothing in a ghosting or stonewalling way. Choose your moments and know your motivation for when to say less. It can be a powerful tool, especially when someone is upset or struggling.

Is this what you guessed for our riddle? If so, congratulations!

I’m an open lover of puns. Riddles not as much, but they can be fun from time to time.

So as a lover of therapy and an appreciator of riddles, I thought a therapy riddle was in order!

What’s your guess to this? Comment below and we’ll see who ends up getting it!

Gayatri talks about how clinical hypnotherapy can help with addictive behaviours.

Hypnotherapy is like a massage for your mind- it feels gentle, relaxing and is just as productive as getting the tension from your muscles released.

I was sad to say goodbye to hypnotherapy as a technique five years ago as it was no longer physically comfortable for me to practice (talking for 20-30 minutes for each session was too much on my post-COVID ravaged throat). That’s why I’m so excited to have Gayatri offering this tool to people.

Interested in hypnotherapy? It is usually 3-5 sessions along with an initial meeting to establish goals and suitability.

Can’t commit to that? That’s ok! Let us know what’s possible for you and we’ll work with that in a clinically appropriate way.

Book online anytime or contact us to get started.

I see individuals and therapists alike get all twisted as they explore the idea of therapy.

“All I’m doing is talking.”

“What are we really doing here?”

“How is this helping?”

Are all valid questions that can come up as you explore this process.

In our latest video we explore being in compared to doing therapy.

Is there a difference?

What do you think?

Don’t be fooled by the control monster lurking in the anxious brain that’s trying to convince you, “If you can just…”

Anticipate it

Stop it

Fix it

Be better than it

This isn’t a solution, this is anxiety at work being covered up by perfectionism and control.

Real recovery comes when we live through and with feelings and take away their power.

Anxiety may feel like a constant companion but it doesn’t have to be. It can shift and get better 🩵

Boundaries are a great self-care tool but have a bad wrap when people think about boundaries as ghosting, kicking people out of your life or being used as weapons.

Boundaries are the way we can identify and honor our needs in respectful ways. Sometimes it may mean we end or disconnect from a relationship, but not always.

Boundaries can look like:

🩵 Self-regulation time

🩵 Sharing feelings and needs

🩵 Resting

🩵 Responding at a pace that works for you

🩵 Slowing things down

Interested in doing some boundaries work? We have a whole team of therapists who love to do this work who’d love to meet with you.
