Chronic Illness
When your body changes, your life does too. You don’t have to face it alone.
Getting a health diagnosis—whether new or something you’ve been living with for years—can upend your life.
The future you imagined feels uncertain. There’s grief for the life you had, frustration about the one you’re in, and a hundred questions no one seems to answer.
It’s not just the illness—it’s the emotional toll of constantly adjusting, coping, and pushing through.
Loss of Control & Grief
There’s nothing fair about this. You didn’t ask for your body to change. And yet, here you are—trying to manage a medical condition while still being everything to everyone else.
Doctor’s visits, treatments, lifestyle shifts, and exhaustion become your new normal. You try to stay strong for your family. You keep showing up, even when it feels like you’re falling apart inside. And sometimes, grief sneaks up—memories you thought you let go of, or the weight of being misunderstood.
If this sounds like your experience, I want you to know: you’re not alone. Therapy can help you carry the emotional weight that comes with chronic illness—and reconnect with a life that feels meaningful again.
My approach will help you:
- Understand your emotions and responses in a way that feels safe and empowering
- Reconnect with your body without judgment—especially when it feels like it’s betrayed you
- Navigate medical systems with confidence and clearer boundaries
- Identify what matters most to you and build practical changes around that
- Heal relationships that have been strained by your illness
- Process the trauma of tests, treatments, or feeling dismissed by the medical world
There IS a better way.
You deserve to feel grounded in your body and connected to your life—not just functional.
As your therapist, I’ll support you with empathy, honesty, and the tools you need to feel more like yourself again. If you’re ready to live your life with more clarity and strength—not just survive it—I’d love to connect.
