I completed my dissertation on the interdisciplinary treatment of chronic back pain. I have extensive experience and interest working with individuals suffering from chronic disease and/or medical problems.
I have a background in supporting children and adolescents experiencing chronic pain. I worked for a year at the Children's Hospital pain clinic supporting patients with a variety of chronic pain concerns utilizing ACT, CBT, and neurofeedback approaches.
We help individuals struggling with chronic illness. Strategies that we incorporate in my treatment include managing pain, dealing with emotional challenges, body image, and navigating relationship challenges.
Have you ever felt isolated by having a disease that is rare, misunderstood, but affects your daily life? Have you felt othered by your identity or place in the world? Specifically, I specialize in depression and anxiety, and work with individuals experiencing the effects of trauma, diversity issues, and chronic health issues.
