Cancer & Chronic Illness Counseling in Sonoma County, CA

---

Medical care treats the body, but what is often untreated is the psychosocial aspects of illness,  Cancer diagnosis can bring fear, uncertainty, grief, relationship challenges, and profound life changes. Counseling can provide a supportive space to process these experiences, strengthen coping skills, and navigate life during and after treatment. 

Here are some of the challenges that those with cancer or other illnesses face: 

•  Fear, anxiety, grief, and uncertainty
•  Loss of identity or independence
•  Chronic stress and overwhelm
•  Living with the long term side effects of treatment or the illness
•  Questions about life purpose and/or hope

I have experienced my own personal health challenges and draw on that in our work together. I understand firsthand the emotional, psychological, and spiritual challenges that a serious diagnosis can unearth, as well as the fear, uncertainty, and profound questions that can arise when life takes an unexpected turn. You don't have to go through this alone!
