Managaing Chronic Illness

Living with a chronic medical condition often requires ongoing adjustment, physically, emotionally, and socially. The demands of treatment, uncertainty about health, and changes in energy or functioning can affect mood, relationships, and sense of identity. Over time, it’s common for individuals to experience frustration, grief, or exhaustion as they adapt to new limitations and expectations.

Treatment often focuses on coping with uncertainty, managing stress, and improving adherence to medical care. A collaborative approach helps align medical and psychological goals, supporting both emotional well-being and long-term health management.

Psychological support can also benefit caregivers and family members, helping them navigate their own stress, boundaries, and communication within the care process.
