Whether you've been newly diagnosed or have been living with an illness for a while, you’re trying to push through the best you know how. But every day is still hard because your body feels sick from aches, pains or other symptoms. You brace yourself for the worst to happen, because that’s unfortunately been your “new norm.” You miss being your old self - the one that could “do more things." Now, you feel like a failure in many areas of your life. The smile you wear covers what you really feel – alone, worried, helpless and angry. All of this has taken a toll on you emotionally and you want to feel more in control of your worries.
As a chronic illness therapist, I know how important it is to make your “new norm” more livable. Through individual, group and family therapy services, you can work through challenges that have come with your chronic illness. You will learn more ways to move forward with your life, coping with the hard days and being more present with the easier ones.
Everyone deserves that - including YOU! Let's been honest - having a chronic illness can be scary, but it doesn't mean you don't get to have a meaningful life! Joy is not out of your reach. It's possible to feel hope and connections with people and things that matter to you. You can still enjoy your life and those in it YOUR way. I can help! Call now.

I often use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in my practice to help clients learn to move forward in life with things that are difficult. We practice Mindfulness-Based therapy approaches to practice slowing down racing thoughts and being present in the moment without beating yourself up. We will talk about the hard stuff that makes you feel worse in ways that gives you options to move forward.
