"I am not free while any woman is unfree, even when her
shackles are very different from my own."
- Audre Lorde
You Did It!
You've bravely taken the first step towards reclaiming the life you had prior to Lupus , one free from stress, anxiety, depression, despair and fear. I admire your courage and readiness to embrace a life of fulfillment and freedom.

I'm here to support you every step of the way.
Are You:
  • Feeling devastated after being told you have Lupus?
  • Experiencing anxiety about your future after being told you have Lupus?
  • Feeling powerless over your ability to experience enjoyment in life?
  • Struggling to balance work, family, and personal obligations now that you have Lupus?
Do You:
  • Feel like a prisoner to Lupus?
  • Feel like Lupus has robbed you of experiencing quality relationships?
  • Feel consumed by depression, stress, fear, despair or anxiety?
  • Look in the mirror and feel like you are looking at a stranger?
You might think that having Lupus means your life is over. You might believe that you will never be able to live the life you've always imagined now that you have lupus. You might think it is selfish to say no. You've convinced yourself that your worth is tied to being everything to everyone.

None of those things are true.

I GET IT


Living with lupus can feel like being caught in a constant battle, where each day brings new challenges and setbacks. You feel like you're enslaved to the disease, forced to surrender to its life-altering affects. The ups and downs, the unpredictability—it can all feel overwhelming.

I understand the weight of the expectations placed upon us as wives, mothers, and career women. Society often tells us that we must juggle everything effortlessly, sacrificing our well-being in the process. But let me tell you, it's time to challenge those beliefs.

THE TRUTH
Statistics show that 25% of lupus patients experience major depression and 37% suffer from major anxiety. You don't have to become another statistic. Depression and anxiety are not mandatory aspects of living with lupus.

MORE TRUTH

It's understandable if you feel like lupus has stolen your freedom to enjoy life. But here's the truth: lupus might affect your body, but it doesn't have to control your mind. You have the power to reclaim your mental well-being and to break free from the chains of depression, anxiety, fear, stress and despair.

The truth is you are not obligated to do it all alone. Your worth is not measured by how much you can take on. Saying no is not selfish—it's an act of self-preservation and self-respect. Setting boundaries in your career and relationships is not a sign of weakness but a demonstration of your value and self-awareness.

Now close your eyes and imagine yourself on the other side of therapy where YOU believe all of these truths.
