Has a cancer diagnosis turned your life upside down? Is cancer all you think about? Hearing those three words “you have cancer” is a gut punch that is paralyzing. Thoughts of scans, testing, treatment, and side effects can become overwhelming. Some people become frozen by fear and struggle to experience joy. Even after treatment is over, quality of life can be compromised. Are you living with fear of recurrence? Do you have survivors’ guilt? Do you feel like you should be now living a life filled with gratitude, but instead feel lost? Are you wondering what is that "new normal" they talk about? Do you just feel stuck?
My specailties include working with patients and caregivers of people with cancer, chronic illness, dementias, substance use disorders, and other life changing events. All of these have one thing in common, a feeling of powerlessness. Through our work together, you can restore a sense of control and find serenity despite the adversity existing in your life.
It is a courageous step to reach out for help. I am here for you. I want you to know that I have walked your walk and I get it. I will provide you with a safe space where we can work together to grow and achieve your goals. I would be honored to have the opportunity to guide and support you as you discover that joy is your birthright.
