Between Sessions
Therapy doesn’t just happen in session. Here we share thoughts, reflections, and practical guidance to support you as you navigate emotions, relationships, and life’s more challenging moments.
When You Can’t Unfollow
For individuals recovering from an eating disorder, watching a friend, family member, or partner pursue weight loss or embrace diet culture can evoke a wide range of emotions. You may experience sadness, fear, jealousy, anger, grief, or self-doubt as old thoughts about body size, food, and self-worth begin to resurface.
We’re grateful for opportunities to contribute to conversations about mental health, relationships, and emotional well-being in our broader community.
