What Can The Invisible Crowd Offer me?
Meet Rebecca,
As a working Certified Nursing Assistant I have supported countless families through the strain of chronic and progressive illness. Being a CNA, patient advocate and Clinical Mental Health graduate student, my passion is bringing the burdens women carry out into the open so they can find the support and resources they need.
I want to bring the latest health information to those who really need it and support both families and individuals on their healthcare journeys.

Welcome. I’m so glad you’re here.
The Invisible Crowd was created to support the people who spend so much of their lives feeling invisible.
This is meaningful, evidence based support for the emotional, physical, and practical realities of caregiving and managing chronic health related challenges.
I bring years of hands-on healthcare experience as a CNA, graduate-level clinical mental health training, and personal experience as a family caregiver managing complex illness. My perspective is grounded in compassion, emotional insight, and practical skill building.
I understand not only the emotional impact of caregiving and chronic illness, but also the realities of working with hospitals, rehabilitation, long-term care systems, and the burn out these systems create.
The Invisible Crowd is the place for individuals navigating burnout, grief, medical complexity, caregiving overwhelm, chronic illness or pain, reproductive health challenges and the emotional weight that often comes with being the one in charge.
