You've become the planner, the driver, the record-keeper, the one who holds the household and the medical calendar together. Somewhere in there, your sleep, your health, and your own life moved to the bottom of the list. This work is about moving you back up it.
Not the one who's sick. You. Running through the costs, the what-ifs, the conversation with the doctor you keep replaying. In the daylight you're competent and steady, because someone has to be. The fear, the anger you feel guilty about, the grief for a person who's still here — those don't get a turn. They just get carried.
If your spouse's diagnosis rearranged your whole life — and everyone's attention, including yours, went to them — this is for you. The financial plan accounts for their care. Who accounts for you? You're not a supporting character in this season of your life. You're half of the long-term picture, and your health, steadiness, and future belong in the plan.
Maybe you're the daughter who lives closest, or the one who "handles things," and caring for a parent has been quietly added on top of your work, your family, and everything else you were already carrying. The pressure is different — the guilt of never doing enough, the sibling dynamics, watching a parent change — but the cost lands in the same place: your body, your sleep, your sense of yourself. This work is for you too.
The exhaustion that rest doesn't fix. Grieving someone who's still alive. Resentment, and the shame about the resentment. Decision fatigue from a hundred choices a week that all feel high-stakes. Fear about money, about the future, about your own health quietly slipping while you manage someone else's. Eating over the stress, or forgetting to eat at all. The question you don't let yourself finish: what about me?
None of it makes you a bad spouse, a bad daughter, or a bad person. It makes you someone whose nervous system has been in emergency mode for months or years. That's the level we work at.
EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques, often called "tapping") is a clinically researched mind-body method that combines light acupressure with focused attention on what's actually weighing on you. You don't have to explain your whole story or hold it together in a session. We work directly with the stress your body is holding, so there's more of you available for the life you're actually living. Alongside it, health coaching for the practical layer: sleep, nutrition, energy, and the habits that keep the caregiver standing.

"Through your work with me, EFT was so helpful during a time of great fear and anxiety related to my osteoporosis as well as related to past trauma. EFT helped me to greatly heal my nervous system in a way that gave me strength, courage, understanding, and more self trust. Even now, I have greater peace and confidence instead of fear and anxiety related to osteoporosis and my past cancer journey."
