Managing a medical condition or physical disability often means carrying a weight the world simply doesn’t see. The bone deep exhaustion, the sting of being misunderstood, and the relentless grind of balancing survival with daily life can feel like a theft of your true self. I’ve been there; I understand these hurdles personally. In our sessions, we won’t just "manage" symptoms, we will honor the fierce complexity of your journey. Together, we’ll reclaim your identity from your diagnosis and adapt to life's shifts without losing your soul. You are far more than a medical chart; you are a person worthy of a grounded, powerful life!
Therapy with me is conversational and action-oriented. I use ACT to help you live a meaningful life aligned with your values. I also specialize in OCD using I-CBT, a framework that helps you move past obsessive doubt by learning to trust your senses and reality over "what-if" stories. Our work is designed to be deeply reflective and practically effective.
Embark on your journey through your life changes with me as your guide. I understand the nuances of this transformative phase and am here to provide guidance, support, and a collaborative space for you to navigate the unknown with resilience and purpose. I look forward to working with you to help you on your journey in this unpredictable world. Call today!
