When clients’ physical symptoms don’t follow predictable patterns and a clear diagnosis is delayed or never comes, they live in a state of ongoing uncertainty that makes it hard to know how to move forward.
And without specialized training, therapists can unintentionally cause harm as they misunderstand clients’ focus on how their body feels as avoidant, resistant, obsessive, or lacking in insight.
With the rise in complex, multi-system, and often dismissed conditions like fibromyalgia, chronic Lyme, and long COVID, it’s more important than ever for therapists to have tools to restore agency, reduce shame, and address complex and layered grief related to changes in functioning and altered future expectations.
In this session, Kanjana Hartshorne – specialist in trauma-informed, body-based, and relational approaches to care – will share keys to help clients regain trust in their own bodies and experience in the face of diagnostic uncertainty. You’ll learn:
Diagnostic Uncertainty and Complex Chronic Illness
Psychotherapy in the Face of Diagnostic Uncertainty and Complex Chronic Illness
Ethical and Relational Clinical Practice
