As a health psychologist, my goal has been to help patients reduce stress, adjust to illness, develop better coping methods, and implement lifestyle changes in order to achieve a greater sense of stability and peace in the face of cancer.
While we often have limitations in our ability to change our illness course, we can work together to better understand and reduce the emotional impact of illness or injury. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, I have worked to help patients find new ways to achieve a greater sense of wellness as they find a “new normal”.
My focus is on helping patients improve and maintain the quality of their lives regardless of illness trajectory. In addition to my work with patients, I also work with family members to support them as they work to help a loved one through difficult medical situations.
I work with couples and families to improve communication, address loss, and handle conflict in the face of illness. I also focus on the importance of self-care and balance for the well family members.
