About
Caring for others while trying to care for yourself can be one of the toughest challenges. If you are caring for a parent, spouse, child, or other loved one with medical conditions and complex needs, you may feel isolated, exhausted, overwhelmed, and unappreciated. You may even have your own health issues to manage on top of it all. Finding time for yourself is essential, but often seems impossible. Others may have unrealistic expectations and judgments they put on you. Endless medical appointments and things to remember can leave you feeling depleted at the end of the day. I work with people of all ages who are dealing with trauma, grief, and medical stress, related to either their own or a loved one's health conditions, or both. I provide compassionate support, validation of your challenges and emotions, and help you find specific skills to cope and thrive while caring for others. You are not alone in this! I have been there, as a mom with an adult child coping with autoimmune illness, and years of social work with older adults and their caregivers. The unique challenges we face can leave us feeling like no one understands. My goal is to work alongside to help you find the most helpful approach.
