There are good days, bad days, and days that are completely overwhelming. You have never thought so much about your body in your life, and now you struggle with it every day. You remember when you trusted your body. There were times when you felt ill, but you recovered before. Now, your medical team is telling you that there is no going back to how things used to be. You are angry, you are frightened, you are hurting, and your loved ones are, too. Nobody seems to know exactly what to say, or what you need. It feels like a bomb has gone off in your life, and you are sifting through the rubble.
At Ginkgo Leaf Health Services, we understand what it is like to struggle with stressful and traumatic medical situations, and we are constantly looking for new ways to support our patients. We offer trauma-focused therapy & wrap around services (e.g. consulting with your medical team, financial planning resources, meditation coaching) to help.
It may feel as though you are your illness, right now - as though your medical diagnosis is what defines you. There is more to you than this. A cure may not be available, but healing is still possible. Please reach out. If Dr. Mullane is not able to take new patients, we will still take your call and work to connect you with another counselor.

I often use Cognitive Processing Therapy, an evidence-based and trauma-focused treatment, in my practice. I also frequently use mindfulness in therapy. I tailor my approach to each patient. In your first few sessions, we will take time to get to know one another and to see what you can change or understand in new ways in your life.
