As an individual who has lived with a chronic illness for many years, I personally have experienced the grief and loss associated with a life altering medical condition.  The hardship that chronic illnesses place on the patient can be overwhelming and confusing.  You may be experiencing anger, sadness, despair or a feeling that the enjoyment you previously experienced in life will no longer be there.  You may also be experiencing anger or rage at the unfairness the condition has imposed on you, or wondering how you are going to manage with the ongoing limitations the medical condition imposes on your life.   I partner with you to work through the emotions you may be experiencing.  I also help you to develop a more fulfilling life, and help you establish the support you will need as you adjust to the condition.
