Health Issues/Anxiety Support 

Have you been recently diagnosed with a health condition?

​

Is your health affecting your everyday life and don’t know who to talk to?

​

Are you constantly anxious about getting a health condition or having a condition reappear?

​

If any of these sound like you, you are in the right place.

​

I provide specialist support for dealing with these issues, when I was 22, I was living in New Zealand and woke up to half of my body paralysed. I contracted a viral infection which affected all my body. Today I live with chronic fatigue syndrome, a rare kidney disorder and type 1 diabetes.

​

I understand firsthand what it is like to receive a health condition which changes your life. You grieve the life you once had, the things you used to do, you can’t do anymore and that is terrifying and so sad.

​

Even with this massive change, life can be still positive, and I will help support you find your new normal. Find ways to cope and manage with your health condition and live in a happier way. Its so important to be able to talk through life changes with someone in a safe and comfortable space and for you to know that you are not alone.

​

Sometimes when we go through illnesses such as cancer, we get a fear of it coming back even though all our test results are clear. This can develop into something called health anxiety which is a form of OCD. Through Mindfulness Cognitive Therapy and Exposure and Prevention Therapy, we will work on those fears. We will safely expose you to the anxiety but in a very controlled environment.

​

Fears are normal, however having Health Anxiety can be really scary and it can feel like it's taking over your life. I will guide you through your healing journey and be your professional friend who wants to walk alongside you,
