Have you ever been told your symptoms are “just stress” or “all in your head”?

Do you feel exhausted, dismissed, or emotionally worn down from navigating chronic illness?

What if your mind and body weren’t working against you — but trying to protect you?


In this episode of the Ask the Patient Advocate Podcast, Dr. Elena Borrelli is joined by Destiny Davis, Licensed Professional Counselor, Clinical Rehabilitation Counselor, and host of the Chronic Illness Therapist Podcast, for a powerful conversation about chronic illness, medical trauma, and the mind-body connection.


Destiny specializes in supporting people living with chronic illness, chronic pain, medical trauma, and conditions that are often misunderstood or dismissed. Together, they explore why so many patients feel unheard in the healthcare system — and how trauma-informed, compassionate care can help patients feel grounded, validated, and empowered again.


In this episode, you’ll learn:


This conversation is for anyone living with chronic illness, waiting for a diagnosis, recovering from medical gaslighting, or supporting someone on a long and exhausting health journey.


💙 You are not broken.

💙 Your symptoms are real.

💙 And you don’t have to navigate this alone.
