Chronic Illness, Chronic Pain & Women's Health Counseling
Live life with greater ease & less pain while finding joy.
You no longer have to suffer and be alone in your pain.
If you’re struggling with chronic pain or a chronic illness, you’ve come to the right place. We can help.
You have recently been diagnosed with a chronic health condition.
You are struggling with getting through the day while living with a chronic medical condition or illness.
You feel unsure and even lost about how to handle your limitations due to your condition, illness and/or chronic pain.
You are feeling more and more alone, coping with your chronic disease or invisible illness that causes people to say, “You don’t look sick.”
You suffer from depression and/or anxiety because you are unsure about what the future holds.
Each day brings chronic pain that is severe, constant, and unrelenting.
We are committed to helping you feel better both physically and mentally so you can live your life as fully as possible even with a chronic health condition / chronic illness.
When you are experiencing physical health issues, your stress level increases, and often anxiety and depression can make functioning at your optimal level extremely difficult. Many women’s health conditions and other chronic illnesses cause physical pain, sleep disruption, and hormonal changes, all of which affect your mood and ability to handle your day-to-day responsibilities. However, illness and/or pain doesn’t have to or get to constrain your life, limit your experiences for joy, or take your hope, joy, or freedom away.
Your pain and illness don’t define you…
Your pain and illness are only a part of your vast life experience
Your pain and illness don’t re-define the amazing and unique person you are
You are still you, but your life may need to be different now. So, you need to create a new normal.
We can work together to make your illness and/or pain a smaller part of your life’s journey, so you feel more empowered and in control.
As Women’s Health Counselors, Chronic Illness Therapists, & Chronic Pain Management Therapists who have personal experience, We have a unique perspective and understanding of what it’s really like and how challenging things can be and become. We understand the mental, physical, and emotional challenges and difficulties that chronic pain and illness bring.
We will work with you so you can begin to feel stronger, less afraid, calmer, and more hopeful. You can begin to create a life worth living, even in the midst of chronic pain, a chronic illness, and/or other challenging health conditions.
