Valerie Dessaulles
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC
When you have been suffering from pain on a daily basis, or have just been diagnosed with a lifelong illness it can be hard to know where to turn. It can feel very isolating, because we don't want to burden our loved ones with our struggles. It can feel like you are living life with a heavy burden and you don't know where to offload some of the stress - let me help. I know what chronic pain can feel like, or hearing that diagnosis - let me help you to find a way to continue to live your best life, or challenge yourself to feel better. I will help you find tools that work for you and your injury / illness that won't increase your pain, but helps you to ease it.

Cayla Townes, Memento Psychotherapy & Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC
Adjusting to new limitations can be difficult. A change in health, whether sudden or gradual, can be disorienting and frustrating. There can be so much grief tied up in changes to our health. No longer having the ability to do the activities we enjoy and having to change our plans for the future are just two of the many ways grief can impact our ability to adjust to chronic pain or illness. I work with people who are experiencing chronic pain, disability, or illness and the caregivers who support them to continue to live meaningful, connected lives.

People often think of chronic pain as a physical problem. But living with chronic pain can take a heavy psychological toll. It can create feelings of anger, hopelessness, shame and isolation. It can impact your sleep, your diet, and can contribute to a variety of psychological symptoms such as depression, phobia and anxiety.
Together we will make a pain management plan that involves identifying the thoughts and emotions contributing to your pain. Through counselling, we can find a way for you to handle your pain more effectively, and improve your self-esteem and overall quality of life.
