Have you experienced the heaviness of a chronic illness or the weight of being a caregiver? Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, isolated, or even depressed at times? Living with a chronic illness is an invisible battle that goes beyond physical symptoms. The emotional toll it takes on you, your partner, or caregiver is often overlooked but just as significant. Whether it's your relationship, career, or household responsibilities, chronic illness or being a caregiver can make it difficult to be the best version of yourself. It takes a lot of courage to take that first step, and I want to commend you for seeking support.
Whether as a couple, family, or individual, I aim to empower you with strategies for stress management, communication enhancement, and stronger relationships. Together, we'll navigate challenges for a more fulfilling life despite difficulties.
I believe in a collaborative approach, where we work together to make positive changes. If you're interested in learning more about how we can achieve that, schedule a free consultation via www.fkotherapy.com. Looking forward to hearing from you!

I use Alma for insurance verification and billing. It's important to note that insurance usually doesn't cover couples or family therapy as it's often considered non-medical and might not be eligible for reimbursement.
