Therapy Servicews
Individual Therapy
Disability, chronic illness, and/or neurodivergence can shift everything: how you see yourself, how you’re seen by others, and how intimacy feels. I see clients ages 15 and older
In therapy, we explore:
- Depression and anxiety about diagnoses and living in a world that wasn't built for you
- Grief around changing abilities
- Navigating fatigue, pain, or mobility differences
- Loving your body while also mourning parts of it
Couples & Relationship Therapy
When disability enters a partnership either from birth, diagnosis, or injury, it can shift roles, identity, and intimacy. Many couples find themselves focusing on appointments, pain management, financial, and insurance struggles. These hardships have the ability to consume your every thought. These hardships can begin to pull you apart rather than bring you closer.
Together, we work to:
- Interrupt painful conflict cycles
- Strengthen communication and emotional safety
- Navigate caregiver-partner dynamics
- Rebuild trust and connection
- Address desire discrepancy when pain or fatigue is present
- Reduce resentment and burnout
Family Therapy
The family system is one of, if not the most, important system. Family is where we find safe connection and secure attachment. The medical system has the potential to negatively impact our attachment. When stress builds it can bring out the exhaustion in us, communication breaks down, and we begin to feel frustrated and misunderstood.
Family therapy can help when
- A child or parent has a disability or chronic illness
- Parents and teens or adult children feel stuck in fight or flight
- Caregiver fatigue is affecting the household
- Siblings are struggling with shifting roles
- Conversations about independence feel hard
- A diagnosis has changed family dynamics
