Chronic Illness and Bereavement as Enduring Traumas – Cordelia Galgut

I am a counselling psychologist who has worked with clients for 30 plus years.

As well as running my private practice , I also write and am published on many subjects, including the service we offer to lesbian and bi sexual women- my doctoral research- and a lot on the psychological impact of cancer from my dual perspective as woman who was diagnosed with it 20 years ago and psychologist, focusing on mismatches between what having cancer is meant to be like and how it actually is. Latterly, I am writing about my experience of dealing with my wife and partner of 40 plus year’s advanced Alzheimer’s.
