      <image:title>About Me - Collaborating with Your Other Medical Providers</image:title>
      <image:caption>I will never share your information with anyone (including your healthcare providers) without a signed document from you allowing me to do so. That said, I believe that in order to best serve you, it can sometimes be helpful to collaborate with your other healthcare providers. For example, we may be trying to help you work toward a goal of walking a few times a week; in this instance it might be helpful for me to get clearance from the provider managing your medical condition that this is a safe and realistic goal for you. If we decide together that it would be helpful to collaborate with your other providers, than I am more than happy to do so (with appropriate paperwork completed).</image:caption>

      <image:title>Therapy for Chronic Pain - Therapy for Chronic Pain If you’re living with chronic pain, then you already know that pain can wreak havoc on your life.  You know the daily struggles, the ups and downs, the uncertainty that comes with never knowing if it’s going to be a “good day” or a day where you can’t even get out of bed. The pain can get in the way of activities you once enjoyed, your work, your relationships, your dreams for the future…EVERYTHING!  Before you know it you may not even feel like “you” anymore.  Once pain starts running your life, it can feel like you’re no longer the one in control and you end up caught in a never-ending cycle of feeling bad physically and emotionally. That’s why worry, anxiety, anger, and depression are so common for people with chronic pain. Pain-focused therapy or “chronic pain therapy” can be one part of the puzzle to helping you feel in control again. You may be thinking “how in the world is talking about my pain going to help with my pain?”.  Chronic pain therapy or pain-focused therapy is not just talking about the pain or complaining.  The therapy process is about honoring the ways in which your life has been impacted by the pain, and then using scientifically driven evidence-based strategies to help you get back to living the best life possible.  In our work together, you will gain tools to help you: Learn strategies to help manage the physical pain  Do more with less pain Get back to the activities that give your life meaning Improve your mood Learn to communicate about pain so you get your needs met and improve your relationships I offer a FREE 15 minute consultation call to see if Chronic Pain Therapy may be right for you.

      <image:title>Chronic Illness Therapy - Chronic Illness Therapy</image:title>
      <image:caption>Coping with Chronic Illness Many chronic illnesses can require a lot of time and energy to manage; balancing medical appointments, medication changes, and worries about the future can all take their toll on your emotional and mental health. Just like with chronic pain, dealing with a chronic illness may mean that many aspects of the life you lived before the illness have been negatively impacted by your condition. You may feel like there was a “before” and “after” version of yourself. You may feel like managing your medical condition has become your full-time job or that it’s all consuming. Maybe you feel like you’re doing a decent job handling the emotional impact of your medical condition but you just can’t seem to make the lifestyle changes recommended by your doctor. If any of these experiences hit home for you, therapy with a health psychologist might help. Therapy for Chronic Illness Management can help you: Learn strategies to help you balance managing your condition with doing more of the things you enjoy Get back to the activities that give your life meaning Improve your mood and reduce anxiety about the future Work toward accepting your medical diagnosis (if this is an important goal for you) Implement lifestyle changes that have recommended by your medical providers to support your physical health; for example: working on weight loss or diet changes to for someone with diabetes or heart disease.

      <image:title>Therapy for Sleep Problems - Treatment for Insomnia &amp; Problematic Sleep</image:title>
      <image:caption>Many chronic medical conditions end up having a significant impact on sleep. Whether it’s the actual symptoms (such as with chronic pain conditions), the side-effects of certain medications, or just to worry and unpleasant thinking that can go hand-in-hand with living with a chronic illness- it can all lead to disrupted sleep. Even if you are not dealing with a chronic medical condition, you may be experiencing symptoms of disrupted sleep or insomnia. In fact, many people experience primary insomnia, meaning that insomnia is their main problem and that it may not be related to pain or illness or medication at all. The stress of day-to-day life, erratic work schedules, and unhelpful sleep habits can all often have a negative impact on sleep. You may notice that you are having difficulty falling asleep, or perhaps you are able to fall asleep quickly, but then you wake up multiple times in the night and cannot get back to sleep. If you are experiencing sleep disturbance, there are effective, evidence-based ways to deal with it, without medication. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) is the gold-standard approach for tackling insomnia, and I have been trained in this approach. CBT-I is an scientifically backed approach for addressing insomnia and improving sleep quality, helping you to feel more rested and less frustrated.  CBT-I uses a combination of strategies that target behaviors and habits that may be contributing to disrupted sleep, and this approach also focuses on strategies to address the emotions and thoughts that may also be getting in the way of a good night’s sleep.  In this way, we can “re-train” your mind and body to increase your sleep drive.  Whether sleep is your main concern or it is part of a larger struggle with pain or illness, CBT-I can be helpful in improving your sleep. I offer a FREE 15 minute consultation call to see if CBT-I or another approach to your sleep problems may be right for you. Click on the button below to schedule a call.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Coping with Cancer - Coping with Cancer</image:title>
      <image:caption>If you’ve found this page, chances are that you or someone you love has recently been diagnosed with cancer.  You may be feeling scared, in shock, overwhelmed, lost, or just numb.  As a health psychologist, I have work many people through different stages of cancer.  Many of these clients have also told me that they don’t want to “be a burden” to their friends and family by relying on them for all of the emotional ups and downs of living with cancer and going through treatment.  Maybe you’re struggling with not being sure how to tell people about your diagnosis, or how to balance treatment and work. Or maybe you did share your worry with friends and family, but their responses were just not helpful.  These are all incredibly common and completely understandable experiences when you’re going through cancer - But just because you may not want to share all of your fears with the people you are close to, doesn’t mean that you don’t need to talk about it, to get support, to let it out. Talking to someone who is not in your immediate circle can be a big help for many people. You Beat Cancer!- Now what? I have also worked with people who have beat cancer (which is amazing!), but sometimes it can be harder than you may think to get back to “life as normal”.  That’s because things are not always the same as before the cancer.  Even if you felt like time stood still while you focused on beating cancer, it is likely that the world may have kept on spinning for other people in your life- so returning to “normal” may feel different.  YOU might even feel different.  You just went through a potentially life changing experiencing, and you may be different than you were before.  If this sounds like you, therapy can  help you figure you out how to get back to living life again instead of just trying to survive.
