Are you facing a new medical diagnosis or grieving the life that you had before the diagnosis? A massive health change can leave you feeling isolated, anxious, and unsure of where to turn. You might also feel overwhelmed by all that there is to do now: How do I talk to my children and family? What if work finds out? How will I ever get through this? If you have recently received a chronic, acute, or terminal medical diagnosis, there is the added stress of navigating the medical system and the uncertainty of what is ahead. Eventually, the distress, anxiety, and sadness that comes as a result of these changes can feel all-consuming.
If you’re looking for a safe place to process all of this change and find support in your next phase of life, then you’ve come to the right place. I honor that YOU are the expert in your life, and it’s my job to walk alongside you to cultivate a sense of independence, empowerment, and freedom from the stress and anxiety you feel today.
You are not defined by what you are going through right now. As a psychologist specializing in chronic, acute, and terminal medical diagnoses, and their caregivers, I have the experience to support you in every facet of your health and healing. You don’t have to go through this alone! Visit my website today to schedule a free consultation.
