Brain Tumor Companion
A brain tumor diagnosis can feel overwhelming. Whether you are on watch and wait (WW), planning a surgery, or a survivor post-surgery, this condition can be extremely lonely. Although we have online groups available, having the opportunity to speak with someone who has been on the journey can bring you a sense of calm and clarity.
I'm a survivor. I managed six years on WW, countless contrast MRIs, a neurologist, four different neurosurgeons, and a craniotomy in December 2018. I've faced many difficult and triumphant days. I created Brain Tumor Companion (BTC) to be a safe place for you to get support and resources to assist you with the challenges and uncertainties of diagnosis.
As a Patient Advocate and Director of Operations in the medical field, I understand the complexity of the healthcare system. Schedule time with me today if you feel I can be of help to you!

Patient Advocate, Brain Surgery Survivor, Brain Tumor Companion, Support Group Leader
Why seek support? This journey requires ongoing monitoring and treatment. BTC is a safe space to talk, cry, laugh, vent, be angry, and celebrate your wins. This process is not easy, many days can feel like an endless roller-coaster, you are not alone.
Brain Tumor Companion (BTC) was created because after my craniotomy I wanted to talk with someone who truly understood. I didn't want my questions lost on social media pages under hundreds of comments, nor did I want to hear a therapist who has not experienced this diagnosis tell me it would be OK. Feeling alone made me frustrated, scared, and sad. In an effort to fill this gap, I created Brain Tumor | Meningioma Companion. Whether a zoom meeting with me or a Brain Tumor Zoom Support Group (BTZSG) with peers, I am committed to creating a safe space for togetherness. The only one who can truly understand this diagnosis is one directly touched by it.
