Chronic Illness

Coping strategies

Chronic illness refers to an illness that will either last for a long period of time or unfortunately has no cure. This means you will need to adjust to the symptoms of your illness as well as any treatments that may be used. The impact this has on you life can be difficult to manage.

Adjusting to these changes can trigger a range of emotions. A clinical psychologist can provide you with coping strategies to help you adjust to this challenge.
