Navigating cancer alone is not an easy journey.
Receiving a cancer diagnosis – whether for yourself or a loved one – can turn your world upside down. Fear, uncertainty, and overwhelming emotions may consume your thoughts. Questions about treatment, recovery, and the future can feel endless.
As someone who has personally navigated a cancer diagnosis and dedicated years to supporting others through this journey, I understand the challenges you face.
My work offers a holistic approach to healing, addressing the needs of your mind, heart, body, and soul.
Here’s an overview of my approach.
Navigating the complexities of a cancer diagnosis requires a comprehensive and compassionate approach. Together, we will integrate the following therapeutic modalities tailored to your unique experience:
Narrative Therapy: We will explore your stories about your diagnosis and journey. By reframing these narratives, you can find meaning in your experience, empowering you to rewrite your story and reclaim a sense of agency in the face of uncertainty.
Internal Family Systems (IFS): This approach allows us to identify and engage with the different parts of ourselves affected by the diagnosis. Understanding how these parts interact can foster self-compassion, enabling you to navigate complex emotions and reactions more effectively.
Somatic Therapy: We will pay attention to the physical sensations and emotional responses associated with your experience. Through mindfulness and body awareness techniques, you can release tension and reconnect with your body in ways that promote emotional resilience.
Existential/Spiritual Inquiry: We will explore the deeper meanings and beliefs surrounding your diagnosis. Examining your relationship with concepts like purpose, connection, and mortality can provide clarity and resilience as you navigate this challenging path.
Through our time together, you will:
- Develop a greater understanding of your emotions, reducing stress and enhancing overall well-being.
- Acquire a valuable reflective practice toolkit that builds resilience and supports a renewed sense of agency and control.
- Uncover deeper self-wisdom that empowers you to keep moving forward with grace and purpose.
