My first introduction to the therapy world and clinical work as a young PhD student began in a local cancer clinic, Orion Sky Health & Wellness. Orion's founder & resident psychologist is Dr. Bonnie McGregor, someone who inspired in me a love and passion for working with those who are adjusting to or recovering from life with a chronic illness. After my humble beginnings as the "tech-guru" (keep in mind that I identify as "technologically challenged") for Dr. McGregor's cancer survivorship groups, I pursued work in a local rehabilitation hospital serving cancer survivors, those recovering from neurological incidents like strokes and traumatic brain injuries, and folks adjusting to disability.
I am beyond excited to meld my two passions (DBT & rehabilitation psychology) and announce that Sydney Rose Counseling will be running a DBT skills group for those coping with cancer. Even better, my trusted "Skills with Syd & Sam" co-host and superstar PhD student, Samantha Jacobson, MS, LMHCA, will be joining me as co-leader.
