Chronic Pain or Illness
Meredith Mpinga
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CPC
As a covid-conscious therapist, I want to ensure that Meadowinds is a safe space for clients who are vulnerable or suffering from chronic illness.
Our current dystopian reality can bring up so many feelings of grief, loneliness, despair, anger... and yet often the supports and resources we've relied on in the past to help us through challenges are not as accessible today.
Whether you want a safe space to process your own emotions, losses, and challenges with the ongoing pandemic, or you just want a therapist who won't pathologise your precautions as you seek support for other concerns, I'm here for you.
At Meadowinds, sessions are available either in person with masking or on an online video platform from the comfort of your home.
Current office protocols include running an air purifier with HEPA filtration, staggering sessions to limit contact in the waiting room, and transitioning to an online session if symptomatic.

Aaron Chin
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MA, RCC
When working with chronic pain or illness, I like to start with some mindfulness around the issue to gain a deeper understanding of the experience, from here there are many options, and I rely of the client's wisdom to guide me.

Theodosia Daflos
Counsellor/Therapist, MA
Chronic pain and chronic illnesses can be devastating to experience, particularly if there is no treatment for them. From a psychological perspective, we know and acknowledge that you have a biological cause of your pain and illness that we can't change through therapy. What we CAN help with is managing your pain and illness. This can include identifying and working through barriers to taking your medications or making medical appointments to manage your illness, identifying patterns and triggers that make your symptoms worse, and addressing the stress, anxiety, and depression your illness and pain can cause.
