My expertise comes from:
“My experiences in chronic illness come from both personal and professional experiences. Navigating chronic illness throughout my life due to my Endometriosis diagnosis as well as being raised by caregivers struggling with chronic illness, I learned first hand the challenges of navigating the medical system and symptom management all while trying to live the life you want to live.
Throughout my work in community mental health and now private practice, I have sat alongside people as they have journeyed through the medical system, adapted and coped with new diagnoses, adapted to transitions/and changes in connection to chronic illness and engaged in and explored symptom management. I have and continue to take steps towards increasing my knowledge in this space through trainings, consultations, and books.”
