🧠 What is Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR)?

DBR is a cutting-edge, neuroscience-informed trauma therapy that helps people process unresolved trauma by working with the brainstem, the part of the brain responsible for our most instinctive survival responses.

Unlike traditional therapy, DBR doesn’t start with the story of what happened. Instead, it gently tracks the sequence of internal reactions that occurred at the time of the trauma, beginning with the body’s orienting response to a perceived threat, followed by tension and emotional shock.

By helping the nervous system complete these original protective responses in a safe and supported way, DBR allows for deep healing at the level where trauma is first held, often without the need to relive or retell painful memories in detail.

If you’re feeling stuck in patterns of fear, hypervigilance, emotional shutdown, or reactivity, DBR might be a helpful path forward. Reach out to us at Shanti to learn more or book a consultation.

Being an international student can be incredibly rewarding, but also deeply exhausting.

You’re adapting to a new culture, managing expectations from home, juggling school, finances, maybe even a job, all while trying to find your place.

It’s no wonder burnout can creep in quietly.
Here’s your gentle reminder:
✨ Take breaks.
🥗 Nourish your body.
🛌 Get enough rest.
🧘‍♀️ Slow down and breathe.
💬 Talk it out.
🤝 Find your people.

You’re allowed to take care of yourself, you’re human first. Read more about the international student experience on our website blog post.

Pride began as protest. As we celebrate, we remember the Black and Brown queer and trans communities who led the way.

At Shanti Psychotherapy, solidarity means unlearning, growing, and showing up, even when it’s uncomfortable.
Because if liberation doesn’t include queer and trans people, it’s not liberation.

This Pride Month, and always, we honour the legacy, resilience, and joy of 2SLGBTQIA+ communities. 🌈💖

Are you mad at me? Did I do something wrong?

Sometimes it’s not just anxiety, it’s a nervous system shaped by childhood and intergenerational trauma. When you grow up reading the room for safety, even small mood shifts can feel like danger. Healing means learning you’re safe now. 💭🧠

Feeling drained or unmotivated lately? You might be experiencing burnout. 💭 Here are a few gentle check-in questions to help you tune into what your mind and body might be telling you:

✨ Are you holding tension in places like your shoulders or stomach?
✨ Have you stopped prioritizing things that bring you joy?
✨ Are you neglecting parts of yourself that truly matter?
Burnout can creep in quietly—but you don’t have to navigate it alone.

Feel free to reach out for support or therapy. You deserve care, too. 💛

You can find lots of resources for support on our blog, which you can access on our website using the link in our bio.
