A new specialist, change in providers, diagnostic shifts and even routine check ups are overwhelming enough. If you’re experiencing brain fog, burnout or a million other barriers to a clear thought, doctor appointments can be anxiety-inducing and stressful blurs of missed questions and forgotten record requests. Appointment preparation can help mitigate forgotten questions, help organize required paperwork, bring confidence to advocating for yourself and keep track of the swell of information all at once.
This is coaching support to help you prepare for your own medical conversations — your questions, your priorities, your words. I don't attend appointments with you, interpret medical information, or advise on treatment decisions. Your medical team handles your care; I help you show up to them prepared, grounded, and impossible to rush.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Fallow + Floret provides nonmedical coaching and support for people and families navigating chronic illness, major health transitions, unsupported neurodivergence and life upheaval.
The name Fallow + Floret is rooted in my care ethos– rest is necessary and tiny blooms have their own medicine.

A chronic illness doula is a non-medical support specialist who walks alongside individuals and families navigating the complex, often isolating journey of living with a chronic or progressive condition.
Unlike medical providers who treat symptoms, or therapists who focus on mental health pathology, a doula focuses on the whole person—the emotional, logistical, and identity shifts that come with a life-altering diagnosis.
Think of us as a bridge between the clinical world and your daily lived experience. We help you:
Process the grief of changing abilities and lost futures.
Navigate the medical maze of appointments, insurance, and specialists.
Develop energy-management strategies (like pacing and spoon theory) that honor your body’s limits.
Advocate for your needs with doctors, employers, and family members.
Create a support ecosystem that reduces the mental load of managing a complex life.
We do not diagnose, prescribe, or provide medical care. Instead, we provide the empathy, practical tools, and steady presence needed to help you live well within your current reality.

Absolutely. Fallow + Floret is a proudly intersectional, BIPOC-affirming, and 2SLGBTQIA+ welcoming practice.
We believe that chronic illness does not discriminate, and neither should our support. As a queer, cis, disabled white woman, I have experienced firsthand where gender identity, sexual orientation, race and socioeconomic status deeply impact–for good and bad– how one experiences the healthcare system and receives care.
All Genders Welcome: Our services are designed for everyone, regardless of gender identity.
BIPOC Affirming: We actively work to dismantle the barriers and biases that people of color face in healthcare and wellness spaces.
LGBTQIA2S Safe: We use affirming language, respect chosen names and pronouns, and understand the unique challenges queer and trans folks face when accessing care.
Whether you are a trans person navigating a new diagnosis, a Black mother managing autoimmune disease, or a non-binary creative dealing with burnout, you belong here. You do not need to hide parts of yourself to be supported.
-
