My Expert Service
|
|
I have worked with people of all ages, individuals, couples and families for 25 years. I use solution oriented, insight and depth therapy. The presence of pain or physical dysfunction makes life more difficult for several reasons. It takes more energy just to cope with daily activities, the ability to work may be impaired, and adaptive assistance may be needed. Further, interpersonal relationships can be complicated when a partner finds themselves in the dual role as caregiver. Part of the title of this category implies that there may be a crisis, but chronic illnesses are burdensome whether or not a crisis exists. Still, day to day demands may build up. If you have stress associated with illness, let me help.
