Consultations for Therapists

I offer consultation services for therapists working with clients navigating chronic pain, medical trauma, and the complex intersections of trauma, neurodivergence, and the nervous system. My approach is rooted in empathy, advocacy, warmth—and just the right amount of irreverent humor to survive this work.

In our consultations, we’ll explore:

• Trauma-informed care for chronic pain

• Medical advocacy and anti-gaslighting strategies

• Chronic pain–sensitive language and dual-lens empathy

• The neurological overlap of chronic pain, C-PTSD, and neurodivergence

• How chronic pain reshapes the brain—and what to do about it

• Nervous system education: sympathetic/parasympathetic basics, vagus nerve support, and tools for calming inflammation and regulation

• Medical treatments, holistic options, and the realities of medication choice —including balancing side effects versus benefits

• Mobility aids aren’t “so simple” —addressing internalized and externalized ableism in therapy and society

• Real-life tools, hard-copy handouts, and nerdy-but-useful knowledge

​

I bring both professional training (and lived experience) with conditions like MS, cerebral palsy, dysautonomia, POTS, interstitial cystitis, long COVID, COPD, fibromyalgia, cervical instability, thoracic outlet syndrome, osteoporosis, degenerative disc disease, small fiber neuropathy, PCOS, fertility issues, traumatic birth, and more. 

​

​​I’ve walked through the fire of medical gaslighting, burnout, and trauma—and I’m here to help you show up smarter, braver, and more resourced for your clients.

 

Whether you’re seeking clinical insight, validation, or a place to process your own stuck points—I’d be honored to support you.
