My clinical practice is devoted to working exclusively with people looking for support with the stress of chronic illness or cancer. Nearly everyone facing chronic illness or cancer can use extra support at times to navigate the challenges. Seeing this to be so, I have been inspired to devote my practice of psychotherapy to providing that support in a compassionate manner to adults throughout Indiana. I have experience and special training to help with illnesses such as cancer, Long COVID, epilepsy, fibromyalgia, ME/CFS, lupus, functional neurological disorder (conversion disorder), and epilepsy (both neurologic and psychogenic).
My primary approach is a type of CBT called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which is mindfulness-based. In addition to individual therapy, I also offer biweekly groups for Living with Long Covid, Women Living with Invisible Illness and Young Adults Living with Epilepsy.
These groups provide community with others who "get it.” We emphasize pacing, addressing stigma, relationships, mindfulness, and self-compassion. If you are looking for help in adjustment to chronic illness or cancer, I invite you to call or email me now to begin the conversation.
