Medical challenges present many problems--sleep deprivation, implementing nutritional requirements, and family members unable to understand your medical challenges and pain. I offer several forms of therapy, based on preference. I have developed protocols based on a decade of research to help you manage your anxiety, depression, pain perception, and sleep and nutritional behaviors. Protocols help with medically-induced PTSD. Critical thinking protocols help make medical decisions when you are feeling overwhelmed but must choose from more than one recommendation. The shared practice model offers multiple skill sets.
My combined clinical research and counseling practice have always focused on quality of life while dealing with medical problems. Chronic pain, chronic disease, rare conditions like Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and the emotional and physical symptoms they cause can be extremely challenging. I support the whole person--physical, mental and emotional.
I have dealt with these conditions in my family as well as in the patients I see. I have hospital privileges and have trained counselors I supervised in the hospital to support full recovery. Often, my patients tell me their providers do not 'hear' them. I can help you learn to communicate with your providers. My office can help with your referral.
