Healing that is in Your Hands
What you need is within in you, let us show you how to find it.
Counseling for people with cancer, chronic illness & caregivers
Have you or a loved one been diagnosed with cancer, serious or chronic illness and needing to talk to someone?
Are you feeling alone or like your illness is wearing you out physically and mentally?
Do you feel stuck or overwhelmed?
Are you caring for someone with a serious illness and looking for emotional support or practical caregiving advice?
If any of these sounds like you, then we can help. At Insight Med Therapy, we are medical therapists who specialize in counseling for people impacted by cancer, serious illness, chronic illness and caregivers. We provide personalized therapy for people who are going through a health crisis, such as a new diagnosis of cancer or serious illness. When you are dealing with health issues, treating the physical symptoms take priority, but health issues, especially ones like cancer and chronic illness, come with emotional symptoms that need addressing too. Health issues can bring up a lot of feelings for patients and caregivers such as anger, depression, grief, anxiety & stress. Our experience working with patients and families impacted by cancer or chronic illness, has helped us create an approach to counseling that is adapted to incorporate both your physical and emotional needs. We do this by offering you a safe space to explore your feelings, your frustrations and your fears.
Cancer and chronic illness impacts the patient as well as their loved ones. We also provide counseling services to loved ones and caregivers. You too are experiencing your own emotional rollercoaster and may feel like you are alone and overwhelmed. We want you to know that you are not alone and we want to provide you with emotional support and practical caregiving guidance so that you can feel supported, knowledgable and empowered to care for your loved one and yourself.
We also know that health issues often require frequent doctors visits, hospital stays, periods of isolation or long treatment days, which is why we offer online counseling for cancer patients, chronically or severely ill patients and caregivers. For patients, this is great way you can build in your emotional support as part of your treatment plan. For caregivers, our online counseling allows you to prioritize your support needs and still be able to be present for all the important moments.
We want to connect with you, hear your story and learn how we can support you in your health journey. We offer a free consultation and are happy to answer any questions you may have.
