Your health matters

But sometimes it’s hard to know helpful ways to take care of you when you have medical problems.

Throughout my graduate training and clinical career I have worked with people with chronic medical problems, who have new or longstanding diagnoses, coping with the accompanying uncertainty or shifting goals and priorities, and the worthy work of trying to build a life worth living while navigating these challenges.

I weave acceptance and commitment therapy and compassion-based therapy into my work with folks who are dealing with medical problems. I am also happy to connect with your medical treatment team (with all the right releases in place of course) if that feels like it would improve your care.

Sound like you?

You have a medical problem that you are being told may not go away?

And you wonder what that means for how you, and maybe feel overwhelmed or sad about changes that have come with the problem?

You know it would be helpful to move forward, but you just aren’t sure how to do that?

So you struggle between taking care of your health and being in your life in ways that matter?

Therapy for medical problems can help you

  • Figure out a healthy balance between taking care of your medical needs and being fully present in your life.

  • Move through the grief that can accompany loss of some aspect of your health or physical functioning.

  • Learn coping skills to lessen the impact of your symptoms on your overall quality of life.

AT THEN END OF THE DAY, I HOPE YOU KNOW:

You are more than your medical problems (really, even if you are skeptical on this!)

Change is possible.
