Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, ADHD-CCSP, CCATP
Chronic pain or living with a terminal illness can cause significant disruption to the quality of a person's life. I have extensive experience working with clients who have chronic pain conditions such as reflex neurovascular dystrophy, systemic lupus erythematosus, Osteoarthritis, among many others. I have also worked with individuals who are undergoing cancer treatments and individuals who have autoimmune diseases such as EOE.
As a licensed clinical psychologist for 20+ years, I understand that the relationship and "fit" between client and therapist is paramount. I work hard to establish and maintain a relationship based on mutual trust and honesty. We can work together to help you feel less stuck, and more in control.
When this is a presentation for our patients, we look to better understand what may be contributing to this. If this is something that wants to be addressed, and if so, how and when. Pacing is the key here.
Over the years I have worked with chronic pain issues and can help in that arena not only from a psychological standpoint but work with your doctor hand-in-hand to resolve issues
