Special services for people with physical illness

If you are like most people who have been diagnosed with a chronic or life threatening illness, you feel like your world has been turned upside down. You may feel that your hopes and dreams are now out of reach. You try to be the “good patient’ by smiling and attempting with your limited energy to follow medical regimens, dietary restriction and life style changes. All the while your heart is hurting. When you push aside the jumble of feelings that comes with illness for day to day functioning, the heart runs dry. It is hard to find the inner resources we carry that are below the pain.

As hard as it may be to believe, when you are in the midst of illness, that very trial can be a door to finding new meaning in your life.

Illness can be a time of finding new meaning and deepening love. By addressing the emotional and spiritual aspects of illness, true healing can happen. What you need is help from someone who can guide you through the challenges of illness in to the light of hope. You do not have to face the challenges of illness alone!

Are you a family member trying your best?

If you are part of a family where a member is ill, you are facing your own difficulties as you seek to support your loved ones. You may not know how to have your own life and at the same time be a good spouse, parent or child. You try to be strong, putting aside your own needs to be there for the person you love, but your own heart does not get fed. Over time, you and your loved ones begin to feel separate, each of you struggling on your own. You need someone to listen just to you, helping you sort through painful and often conflicting feelings. You need help to find the nurturing for your own heart as you care for others. In the midst of facing such difficulty is an opportunity for you and your family to come together in a way that can provide nourishment not to one but to all of you. Illness can be a time to grow the expression of love between all whose lives are affected. I have worked with individual family members and families all together, helping them find a way through the hardship of illness into a better life together.
