The Chronic Illness Therapists Podcast
Have you ever wondered how a therapist can actually help you with your chronic illness?…
Does seeing a therapist make you feel like “it’s all in your head?”
Listen in while I interview therapists across the world who specialize in chronic illness. Our goal is to demystify the therapy process, so you can finally get the help and support that you deserve.
New episodes air every two weeks on Fridays on Apple, Google, and Spotify.

Below you'll find all my newest blog posts. I write about lots of different topics - sometimes about things I discuss in my podcast episodes, and other times just sharing thoughts and ideas that aren't connected to the podcast. Take a look and enjoy!
When You Actually Need a Registered Dietitian, Not More Therapy
I get this question a lot, and honestly, I think I know why. For years, people have been going to their doctors, getting told "you have IBS, sorry, there’s nothing more we can do for you - here’s a pamphlet," and then somehow ending up in therapy when what they really need is education around their particular condition and how to eat appropriately for it.
Don't get me wrong - I'm a therapist, and I love the work I do. But sometimes people end up in my office talking about stress when what they actually need is medical care. They just haven't gotten to the right medical professional yet.
