Specialties
INVISIBLE ILLNESS | TICK-BORNE ILLNESS | IMMUNE DYSFUNCTION | CHRONIC-PAIN | UNDIAGNOSED
A space that honors and validates what you’re going through
Living with a chronic illness is so much more than just dealing with physical symptoms. If you’re facing chronic Lyme Disease, a tick-borne infection, an autoimmune condition, or a mysterious chronic illness, you might feel like you've spent years searching for answers - only to be dismissed, misdiagnosed, or told it’s “all in your head.”
You’ve likely been through the cycle of seeing specialist after specialist, hoping someone will finally connect the dots, only to leave with more questions than clarity. Many people living with chronic Lyme, Bartonella, Babesia, and other co-infections go undiagnosed for years due to inaccurate testing and a lack of awareness in conventional medicine.
The same goes for autoimmune conditions like Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), hypothyroidism, Hashimoto’s, and Fibromyalgia - where your symptoms may be minimized, misunderstood, or brushed off altogether.
If you’re here, you’re likely exhausted - not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually too. You’re not alone. And you deserve support that honors the full picture of what you’ve been through and how it’s affecting your life today.
HOW THERAPY CAN SUPPORT YOU WITH CHRONIC ILLNESS
Exploring together the deeper layers that chronic illness affects
Heal the painful emotions
Chronic illness often brings more than physical pain. It carries grief, anger, fear, and the trauma of experiencing the illness along with often receiving very little support and understanding from the medical community and your closest relationships. The manifestation of chronic illness can bring up years of unresolved emotional pain in addition to the pain caused by the illness itself. In therapy, we make room for all of it. You’ll be supported in processing what you’ve been carrying and begin to feel the relief of being truly seen and heard.
Reconnect with your inner wisdom
Living with illness can disconnect you from your intuition and your sense of self. Your entire identity, life, and relationship with yourself and others can be turned upside down. Together, we will explore the roots of patterns (such as people-pleasing) that may connect with your illness, alongside guiding you to remember your own wise, intuitive voice that has felt disconnected from experiencing chronic illness.
Support your nervous system & soul
Your body holds so much of your story. Through holistic and trauma-informed approaches, we’ll support nervous system regulation, release stored stress in your body (from physical and emotional pain), and help you naturally feel more safe in your body, thoughts, emotions, and life overall. We’ll also help connect the dots to the deeper meanings your chronic illness has uncovered in your life.
WHO THIS THERAPY IS FOR
-
You’ve seen multiple doctors, tried countless treatments, and still feel like no one truly sees the whole picture. You might be living with chronic Lyme, an autoimmune condition, or another complex health issue - and you’re exhausted from being dismissed or misdiagnosed. You want emotional healing to be part of your care, too.
-
Chronic illness has taken a toll on your mind, body, and spirit. You may feel anxious, disconnected, or like you’ve lost pieces of yourself. You’re ready for a space where you don’t have to hold it all inside, pretending that you’re okay. This is a safe place to be nourished emotionally and spiritually.
-
You know your chronic illness isn’t just physical - and you’re craving support that reflects that. You’re drawn to a more holistic path, one that honors the emotional, energetic, and spiritual layers of your healing. You want therapy that connects the dots between trauma, the nervous system, and the deeper meaning behind your symptoms.
“Suffering has a noble purpose: the evolution of consciousness and the burning up of the ego.”
— Eckhart Tolle
-
Yes. I’ve supported many clients living with chronic Lyme, autoimmune conditions, and other misunderstood illnesses and also have lived experience with this. I know how exhausting it is to be dismissed, misdiagnosed, or told “it’s all in your head.” Medical trauma and medical gaslighting is real. In this space, you don’t need to convince anyone. You will be believed, supported, and met with deep care for the emotional and spiritual weight you’ve been carrying.
-
Each session is unique and tailored to what you need in the moment. Sometimes we’ll explore the emotional impact of your illness, medical trauma, or patterns like people-pleasing or self-abandonment. Other times, we might focus on nervous system regulation, somatic practices, or gentle trauma work like EMDR. You don’t need to show up with a plan - just as you are is enough. This is a space where you can slow down, be real, and feel supported on every level.
-
This isn’t just talk therapy - it’s a holistic, trauma-informed approach that honors your full experience: mind, body, and spirit. We might use EMDR, somatic tools, inner child healing, and intuitive practices to gently support emotional release and nervous system healing. Your body holds onto stress and past pain. Together, we’ll create space for release, healing, and relief.
-
You don’t need a formal diagnosis to receive support. Many people with Lyme, autoimmunity, or mysterious illnesses go years without clear answers. But you know your body - you know when something is wrong. If you’re feeling physically unwell, this space is for you. We start with what you know to be true, and build from there - with compassion and care.
