Chronic Pain therapists in Little Portugal, Ontario ON, Canada CA
Andrea Rowell
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
It can be very isolating to go through chronic pain or illness, and yet this is a time of life when we need healthy and supportive connection with others the most. The IFS (internal family systems) approach can be especially supportive for relief of chronic illness, autoimmune illness, and pain. I use the IFS approach because it's an incredibly non-pathologizing approach, and when you're "all out of spoons", that compassion is really needed.

Tracey Nguyen
Counsellor/Therapist, RN, MN
The psychology of chronic illness involves feeling helpless, victimized and powerless in our relationships. It involves people pleasing and being very dependent or living at the mercy of others. Healing chronic illness is centres around healing the control and power struggle in the relationships in childhood, specifically with a parent who had anger issues where you feared and lived your childhood tip toeing around their emotional tempers. This has perhaps translated into your adult life where you control others, get angry at others often, put others on a pedastol and feel powerless in some areas of your life. Healing your fears of feeling attacked and balancing the power in your relationships and releasing control are key to healing chronic illness.

Kaleidoscope Counselling Collective
Registered Social Worker, RSW
Having a chronic or progressive illness can create such distress in us. Knowing that our body might not function as it should and not knowing a timeline regarding a decline, can bring up feelings of sadness, frustration, grief, anxiety and shame. It can be hard to tolerate all the uncertainty related to this. Our therapists can give you a safe place to share about your feelings and thoughts about your struggles, and provide you with a space to grieve, as well as learn to manage the discomfort, and create new meaning and purpose amongst the suffering.
