I know what it’s like when people see you as fragile and your potential is already set. When you’re advocating at the top of your lungs but it feels like no one’s listening. Wait a minute, shouldn’t I be the expert on what it’s like living in my body? Shouldn’t you be asking me what I can accomplish? Don’t I deserve a seat at the table of my life? Is there a manual for living life with chronic illness? I wish! What I’d give to feel like my voice mattered, navigating healthcare. What I’d give knowing that just because I do life differently doesn’t mean I’m not accomplishing significant things. My body doesn’t define me.
I specialize in supporting clients with chronic illnesses. I can help you feel like the expert on you and find your voice. I can provide you with tools tailored to your unique needs, be it communication or advocacy. I want to help you learn tools to communicate differently with the people around you so you can see what you can really do!
While I create a safe space to listen and validate my clients’ thoughts and feelings, it isn’t all the work we do together. I believe it’s my role to help you question certain thoughts and feelings. These conversations may feel uncomfortable but the honest and open conversations I have with my clients are what help them challenge their thoughts and assumptions.
