Chronic pain and/or illness are often rooted in our personal or family traumas. Trauma is held in our bodies. The mind-body connection converts our thoughts, emotions, feelings and body sensations into chemicals that can increase or decrease emotional and physical pain. Therapeutic interventions help our brains to learn new ways to reorganize synaptic connections resulting in lessening or releasing symptoms from physical and emotional pain and/or illness. EMDR and other evidence-based modalities integrative therapies are used.

Are you or your child finding it hard to cope with your child's medical diagnosis? Are you trying to find ways to deal the stress of having your child swallow different medications, watching blood sugar, or getting shots/pokes? Maybe your child asks questions about why they are different from other kids and you would like to know how to respond? I can help you and your child to find empowering ways to accept their emotions around an illness, evidence based ways to help with behaviors needed to keep up with the doctors orders, and a safe space to talk about the stressors from the illness and also to highlight the wins.
