If you are living with chronic pain or a chronic illness , you’re probably frustrated by trying to explain the hard parts to other people in your life that just don’t get it, the ones who make you feel like “it’s all in your head”. I’m here to tell you that it’s not in your head…it’s real, and it can have a really big impact on your life. You might miss the way things were before your pain or illness; you might not even feel like the same person anymore. I know, because I've lived it. The sadness, loneliness, and constant worry that comes along with managing pain and illness is real, but it doesn’t have to be permanent.

If you're ready to find your inner badass - I can help via online therapy - daytime, evenings & weekends!

It can be hard to feel understood when you feel alone in your journey.
