Therapist Overview
Chronic illness or pain present unique challenges for individuals and families. Using cognitive behavioral therapy, learn to live a better and healthier life. I specialize in helping people with chronic medical conditions improve their physical and emotional functioning. Do you have chronic headaches, irritable bowel syndrome, chronic low back pain, or fibromyalgia? Each of these conditions can be alleviated by using psychological treatments. Having chronic pain is a stress in and of itself. I help you to make changes that can also improve sleep and mood. My experience of 15 years at the University of Virginia Cancer Center and 4 years at the UVA Pain Management Center combine to allow me to help patients and families at any stage or phase of cancer diagnosis, treatment, recovery or ongoing illness. My doctoral level training in clinical health psychology allows me to assess your strengths, as well as areas that can be improved. I am a collaborative therapist who listens and motivates.
