Shownotes

Dr. Francesca Owoo is a therapist who focuses on couples and families navigating the complex world of chronic illness. She is passionate about working with this population due to several chronic illnesses within her family. While working on her Ph.D., she was diagnosed with fibroids, stage 4 endometriosis, and adenomyosis. She has 14 years of experience using systemic-based therapies and a culturally-sensitive model when working with marginalized populations in a variety of settings such as psychiatric and medical facilities, community mental health agencies, university clinic settings, and within the school system. In this episode she shares her story and her passion for taking her personal experiences and helping others that are going through the same challenges. You don’t want to miss her honesty, humor, and warmth as she speaks about her passion of sharing her story so no one else feels like they’re going through this alone.
