GIVING YOUR BODY A VOICE
I believe that bodily issues such as chronic and semi-chronic pain, medically unexplained fatigue, and other symptoms resistant to medical treatment can often be understood by starting an open conversation with the body. We often find that these stubborn and frustrating pains actually have a purpose and function for us. As paradoxical as this may seem, the psyche is a very powerful and purposive element, whose goal is to maintain our psychological safety. The psyche can maintain the body's status quo despite evident frustration with the pain that emerges from it.
​
In our work, I help you to identify the function of your physical symptoms so that we can find a different way of meeting your psychological needs that does not need to inflict illness on your body.
Your body has been speaking to you. Now is the time to listen to what is being said.
