I worked as a Registered Nurse in Hospice, case managing clients faced with a terminal illness. I was part of a team that assessed and anticipated peoples end of life care needs. We used a holistic approach with the knowledge that when you deal with a person's physical, mental and emotional needs as a whole, it is more likely to have a much more positive outcome in assisting people to cope with the loss in a way that promotes healing. Today, I put these life experiences and skills in another direction as a Hypnotherapist.
