When medical illness enters a family—whether through a child's diagnosis, a parent's treatment, or a partner's chronic condition—everything changes. Roles shift, routines are disrupted, and emotions run deep. As a parent, loved one, or support person, you may feel the pressure to stay strong for everyone else. But you shouldn’t have to carry that weight alone.

SUPPORT FOR:

• Parents of children or teens living with cancer, chronic illness, or medical needs

• Parents facing difficult conversations with children

• Managing difficult and changing family dynamics, increasing communication and support in the family

• Navigating changes in routine and schedules through illness, maintaining consistency

• Processing fear, grief, guilt, anxiety and helplessness

*In addition to cancer, I have experience in supporting children, adolescents, young adults and families experiencing chronic medical conditions such as muscular dystrophy, ALS, chronic migraines, cerebral palsy, fibromyalgia, celiac disease, diabetes, Crohn’s disease, food intolerances and unknown chronic illness.
