Solid Organ Transplant & Chronic Health Conditions

Living with a chronic health condition—or preparing for or recovering from a solid organ transplant—can bring emotional, physical, and relational challenges that go far beyond the medical experience itself. At Abundance Counseling Services, we offer compassionate, trauma-informed support to help you navigate uncertainty, manage stress, and reconnect with a sense of stability and hope throughout your health journey.

​

Interventions may include:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Addressing anxious, fearful, or self-critical thoughts while building realistic coping strategies for managing health-related stress and lifestyle adjustments.

• Mindfulness: Encouraging presence and self-compassion to help you stay grounded through the ups and downs of chronic illness or transplant recovery.

• Somatic Experiencing (SE): Supporting the body’s ability to regulate and release tension or trauma related to medical procedures, chronic pain, or prolonged health stress.

• Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR): Reprocessing distressing medical memories or health-related fears to reduce emotional distress and promote resilience.

• Adjustment and Coping Skills: Identifying tools and routines that support daily functioning, self-care, and emotional balance as your body and life circumstances change.

• Support Systems: Strengthening your network of care—family, friends, medical providers, and community resources—to help you feel supported and understood outside of sessions.

• Medication Collaboration: When appropriate, referrals to your primary care provider or psychiatrist for additional support through medication, ensuring your mental and physical health care work hand in hand.
