The Emotional Effects of Life Threatening Critical Illness

Are you a survivor of a life threatening, critical illness?

Maybe you had to endure the watching, the waiting and the uncertainty of whether a loved one might survive?

The physical effects of sudden, life threatening critical illness can be shattering.

All that is held dear is threatened and becomes precariously balanced.

Critical illness affects both the individual and the lives of those around them.

Often, the story of such an emergency is only half told. The other half of the story is the emotional effect critical illness has had on you, your recovery and the lives of those around you.

The experience of critical illness can have traumatic emotional effects and this trauma can continue to effect emotional well being long after recovery or death of a loved one.

As a Psychotherapist and Registered Nurse, I offer you a space to talk about and make sense of your experience of serious, life threatening critical illness and its outcome.
