Description

I have the pleasure to interview Sally Jade Powis-Campbell who's resume speaks for itself! Take a Listen

Let me introduce myself. I’m Sally. I’m a Registered Psychologist in Alberta. I’m also a meditation guide, yoga instructor, writer (stay tuned for a mindfulness book coming in 2018!), mindful food artist, & public experience maker/speaker! It is with love & passion & education that I founded WHyyc!

At my core, I see myself as a playful helper working with patients of all ages — young & young at heart — in individual, couple, family, & group settings. I take a collaborative approach with clients to attend to individual &/or family intentions with therapy.

With curious awareness in your daily lived experience, you can experience more JOY & less STRESS… & literally change the structure & function of your brain to help you focus better & improve your relationship with yourself, those around you, & how you look at life… now who wouldn’t want that?

Wholistic Health YYC’s practice is rooted in WHOLISM, which involves mindfully attending to each person or family unit as a WHOLE person — including body-mind-spirit integration, as well as the social & environmental factors influencing one’s situation. Depending on areas of growth & personal interests, psychological & educational work can include mindfulness meditation, food+mood journaling, thought & body sensation tracking, breathing techniques spanning goals of energizing to relaxing, mindful movement such as yoga, eating & food play exercises, art, gratitude journaling, crafting essential oils to support health, personal intentions & mantra creation.

The branches of my practice that have grown through professional training & personal experience to include the following therapy modalities & presenting concerns I work with:

• CHILD PSYCHOLOGY (play therapy, social skills, mindfulness-based interventions for age 2+ to address issues from peer rejection to behavioural regulation)
• MINDFULNESS-BASED INTERVENTIONS FOR ALL AGES
• MINDFUL MOVEMENT & YOGA
• MINDFUL EATING & EATING DISORDERS & PICKY EATING
• MINDFULNESS FOR ATHLETES (mPEAK training) & SPORT PSYCHOLOGY
• NUTRITION PSYCHOLOGY & FOOD + MOOD THERAPY
• COMMUNICATON
• FAMILY THERAPY (communication, separation/divorce, mindful mamas)
• MOM + DAD LIFE (mindful parenting, mindful partnering, anxiety, depression, food + mood therapy for parents & families, mindful meal prep, mindful eating for parents/kids/families, self care)
• PSYCHOAROMATHERAPY (the study of how essential oils impact brain chemistry)

In addition to my practice, I’m passionate about my role as a mother & wife, & my pastimes of writing, yoga, running, strength training, spinning, & cooking. In a previous career I was a TV news reporter; today I continue my love for journalism by blogging & doing freelance writing.
