I work with children and adolescents who live with chronic conditions, in particular type 1 diabetes.
Children come to Art Practice to address:
- Illness Perception, Experience, and Integration
- Caregiver-child conflict in relation to management
- Intrapsychic and interpersonal impact of devices
- Adjustment to new devices
- Impact of illness on sibling relationships
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Disruptive anger
- Adjustment to new family constellations
- School-related difficulties
- Negative self-concept
- Trauma-related disorders
- Disordered eating
- Stress
