Why do therapy for chronic illness/physical health issues?
Our minds and bodies are directly linked, and one affects the other.
It’s important when experiencing a chronic health issue to seek support to help your emotional and mental health, help you cope with your health condition, and overall help you feel more empowered and confident.
At Bala CBT, we help advocate for you and help you navigate the often invalidating and unsupportive medical system.
Often times, our clients with chronic health issues report feeling misunderstood by their own support system because others don’t know what it’s like to deal with what they’re dealing with - at Bala CBT, we provide a safe, understanding, non-judgmental space for you to cope and gain support for your health!
For Parents - we not only help your child cope and provide a safe space, but we help you and your family navigate the medical system and often times, help you navigate changes a family has to make for their child’s diagnosis.
To Schedule a FREE 15-minute phone consultation, call/text us at 610-477-7684, email us at shana@balacbt.com, or fill out the contact form below.
We understand the importance of feeling comfortable and safe with your therapist when you often don’t feel that way with other providers! Bala CBT offers a free phone call with your potential therapist to make sure you are a good match.
