Does your chronic illness leave you feeling exhausted and depleted? Do you feel left out when you can’t engage in activities you used to enjoy? Do you feel like you are losing parts of yourself and your life? Do you feel isolated and/or misunderstood by others? In many ways, the diagnosis of a chronic illness can turn life upside down and be hard to navigate.
Things you were once able to do, you may no longer be able to. Plans once made may now be uncertain. Positive emotions may have been replaced by negative ones like fear, stress, anger, shame, and low self-worth.
While everyone experiences negative emotions from time to time, chronic negative emotions can make it harder to physically cope with illness, and to find joy and meaning in one’s life. Therapy is a powerful way to face the challenges and subsequent negative emotions you are dealing with.
Our providers have specialized training in providing strengths-based, client-centered, evidence-based therapy to clients living with chronic medical conditions utilizing techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
