Chronic Illnesses
Adjusting to a chronic illness can be difficult for both the affected person and the entire family. Learning to cope with physical and emotional pain in addition to the daily stresses of doctors’ visits, dealing with medications, and receiving treatments can all be extremely stressful. Psychotherapy to address the emotional issues and teach coping strategies can be very beneficial for all involved. We use a combination of individual therapy and family therapy, sometimes in the home.
