Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
For individuals with invisible chronic illnesses, hiding your pain all the time becomes exhausting. With a chronic health issue, you don’t get to choose when you’re in pain and when you’re not, and as such, I keep my cancellation policy flexible so that I can best support you. There is often a great deal of shame surrounding chronic illness, and significant stigma as well, both from the medical community and society at large. This can lead to depression and anxiety, both medical anxiety and social anxiety. I want to work with you to ensure that your chronic illness does not completely shape your mental health. As someone who suffers from a chronic pain condition, I am understanding and aware of the unique challenges that diagnoses such as fibromyalgia, Ehlers-Danlos, Dysautonomia, arthritis, and cancer have on an individual’s personal, romantic, and professional life. My goal is to help each patient understand and accept these diagnoses and work together to manage both the physical symptoms as well as the mental turmoil that can occur while trying to live life in an able-bodied world.

Rebecca Castle-Waller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
People mean well, but they just don't get it. From the folks who "helpfully" suggest you try yoga and tea tree oil to the folks who absolutely refuse to acknowledge the elephant in the room, you find yourself working twice as hard, first to manage your pain and condition, and second to make sure you aren't bothering the people around you. This goes double if you have an invisible disability.
I get it. Let's give you a space where you can unmask. A space where you can be you without having to worry about bothering people, complaining too much, being too graphic. I've heard it all. Let's build a space together where we can look at some of the underlying psychology to give you tools to help build the life you want to be living.
