Injuries and Health Issues

A serious injury or health diagnosis affects more than your body. It can shake your sense of who you are, how independent you are, and what you thought your future looked like. That's especially true if being physically capable was a big part of your identity.

With my background in elite sport, I know how much that can matter. Grief, anger, fear and a kind of disorientation are all common, even when everyone around you is telling you to focus on recovery.

Here there's room for the emotional side as well as the practical adjustments. We can talk about what's been lost, how you relate to your body and your life as they are now, and how to build an identity that doesn't depend only on what you could do before.
