Hi! I’m Christy (she/her/hers). I’m a private-practice online therapist (licensed in Oregon and Washington state) who specializes in helping professional women who live with chronic illness and/or chronic pain. I also provide clinical consultation to therapists (anywhere) and clinical supervision (in WA). Many of my clients have experienced some combination of being ignored, misdiagnosed, and gaslighted. They’re trying to be kind to themselves, to trust themselves, and to find ways to get the support that
they need without having to prove that their pain is real or that they’re trying hard enough. And although it won’t ever be exactly like any individual client’s experience, this is what happened to me. In 2018, after 20 years of it, I finally learned that the doctors were wrong. I never had fibromyalgia; I was born with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (and then went on to develop POTS, MCAS, and gastroparesis). As a feminist therapist who is fat-positive and disability-justice oriented, I work from a liberation perspective. I believe that all bodies are good bodies. I won’t promise that I can cure anyone’s illness or pain (in fact, I promise that I can’t), because their body is not the problem. It never has been.
