Chronic Pain therapists in Oil City, Pennsylvania PA
Dr. Adam Shafer
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Managing chronic pain and illness exhausts many of the social and personal resources we have just to get through the day. Feelings of isolation and being alone in this struggle are insidious and can take away from our ability to remain connected to others and within ourselves. Whether it is not wanting to burden others with our struggle or feelings of hopelessness, people need to know (and feel) that they are valuable enough to continue to be cared for while also provided with space through encouragement that honors our autonomy.
Dr. Rebecca Fleischer
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
As a licensed clinical psychologist for 20+ years, I understand that the relationship and "fit" between client and therapist is paramount. I work hard to establish and maintain a relationship based on mutual trust and honesty. We can work together to help you feel less stuck, and more in control.

Kerry Hill
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA
Our society is not built to accommodate those of us living with a chronic illness or a disability. The hurtles we face are psychological, social, and emotional as well as physical. As a person with an invisible disability, I have also dealt with feelings of frustration and isolation. Some but not all of the issues I have experience working with are fibromyalgia, POTS, epilepsy, migraines, and general medical trauma.
