Online Family Therapy For Navigating Illness

Complimentary 15-20 minute consultations are available to help us decide if we feel I can support you and your therapy goals. We will explore what your best hopes are for our time together. Therapy is always about what feels best for YOU and that starts with finding the right therapist for your unique, individual needs.

Individual therapy is a one-on-one, confidential space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences with support of a trained professional. It's a personalized process that helps you better understand yourself, navigate challenges, and develop tools to cope, heal, and grow.

Whether you're facing anxiety, grief, life transitions, trauma, chronic illness, or simply feeling stuck, individual therapy offers a supportive environment tailored to your unique needs. Sessions focus on your goals and move at your pace, helping you build insight, resilience, and a stronger sense of well-being. 

Family therapy during end-of-life preparation offers a compassionate and supportive space for families to navigate the emotional, relational, and practical aspects of this deeply sensitive time. With the guidance of a trained therapist, family members can come together to communicate openly, express fears and wishes, make important decisions, and strengthen connections as they face the reality of loss.

This type of therapy helps reduce conflict, clarify roles, and ensure that everyone feels heard and supported — including the individual facing a life limiting illness. It can also assist in legacy planning, navigating anticipatory grief, and fostering a sense of peace and shared meaning during an incredibly vulnerable chapter.

End-of-life family therapy is not just about preparing for death — it's about creating space for connection, healing, and honouring life.

What is Trauma?

Trauma is the emotional, psychological, and sometimes physical response to a deeply distressing or overwhelming experience. 

Trauma isn’t defined by the event itself, but by how your mind and body respond to it. What feels traumatic for one person might not for another — and that’s completely valid. Trauma can leave lasting effects on your sense of safety, trust, identity, and ability to cope.

When Illness Changes Who You Are

Chronic Illness doesn’t just impact the body- it can shake your entire sense of self.

 

The roles you once filled, the things that gave you purpose, even how you think about your future- may all feel unfamiliar or out of reach.

Chronic illness may have changed your path- but it hasn’t erased your worth. Therapy can help you reconnect with yourself and rediscover what matters to you most.





You are more than what you've lost and your diagnosis does not define you.
