Aaron Chin

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.

Teo Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, CCC, RPq
Chronic pain and illness can often be intertwined with past trauma, as our bodies can "keep the score" of emotional and physical stress. I specialize in helping clients manage chronic pain and illness by exploring how unresolved trauma may contribute to their physical symptoms. Through Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), I guide clients in processing traumatic memories, reducing their emotional impact, and helping the body release stored tension. Alongside EMDR, I use mindfulness and cognitive behavioral techniques to empower clients to regain control over their health and well-being. Together, we’ll work on alleviating the emotional burden of chronic pain, promoting healing, and enhancing quality of life.

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
I have made Chronic Illness and Pain a specialty in my practice and I have trained with some of the leading experts in that area. I have worked with many chronic pain sufferers, often eliminating all their pain even when it has been a long standing problem. As far as illnesses go, I have been able to eliminate all the symptoms of a client who was suffering from Progressive Supranuclear Palsy, a degenerative neurological condition related to ALS or Lou Gehrigs disease. When I first met him, he had been degenerating for 12 years, was confined to a wheelchair, could no longer speak, drooled constantly, suffered from tremors and repetitive movements, inability to sleep and he lacked motivation to do his physical therapy, the only treatment doctors could offer him. With no treatment or drugs for his condition, doctors expected him to die soon most likely from choking as he lost control of his swallowing. After one session, we stopped the tremors and repetitive movements, got him to sleep more soundly and do his PT. After a second session he was able to speak again and walk again. After 5 sessions one couldn't even tell he was sick and now 6 years later he is still gardening, walking his dog, hiking in the mountains. Soon after I worked with a gentleman who had developed an adult onset form of Muscular Dystrophy called Myotonic Dystrophy. Only 45 years old, he suffered from severe chronic fatigue, finding himself unable to get out of bed in the morning, taking hours to stand up. He had muscular pain and rigidity, painful joints and various digestive issues. The morning after our first session, he woke up full of energy and jumped out of bed. After a few more sessions we eliminated all his physical symptoms as well as clearing several emotional issues that had plagued him his whole life. Recently he contacted me to update me and report his still feeling good. I have also worked with clients with MS and Parkinsons> This past year I trained and certified in treating IBS and other gut conditions, learning a protocol which is considered the most effective treatment for these issues. I have also trained and certified in Hypno-Oncology, enabling me to support patients on their Cancer journey to deal with pain, anxiety, and the effects of treatment such as nausea. Recently, I worked with a woman with stage 4 lung Cancer. Her only hope was a new experimental protocol that involved a long needle inserted into the stomach. She had a lifelong needle phobia and was terrified. After the first grueling treatment she came home and cried and vomited for 3 days. After one session she went in for her second treatment and she was able to laugh and sing show tunes with the nurses throughout the treatment, felt no pain and went home calm and relaxed.

Kate Hollowell Sheldon
Psychologist, MC, R.Psych.
I used to work at a chronic pain clinic early in my career. Throughout the years, I have also worked with clients who are diagnosed with terminal health conditions or they experienced life changing difficulties with surgery or injury. Sometimes I utilize EMDR for pain management and I can teach the client how to use tapping to alleviate some of their pain flareups or give them a break from the chronic pain they are experiencing. This topic also involves some grief and loss work with a client around their physical abilities and their identity. In the case of a client who has a terminal illness, we work on how they want to live their life with meaning and purpose.

Chronic Pains and illnesses are, most of the time, related to environmental stress and genetic factors. While we can't address the genetic component, we can work on the stress factors that are affecting our lifestyle, improve self-confidence to slowly achieve new goals and learn to cope with the pain and health.

Laura Jean Northey
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, BA
In addition to the added stress that chronic pain and illness can add our lives, they can also bring up existential questions and spiritual dilemmas. When these go unaddressed, they can lead to anxiety and depression. Together we can look honestly at the emotional reality that you experience as a result of your chronic pain or illness, bring light to your feelings, and allow space for you to express yourself openly.

Living with chronic pain or illness fundamentally changes your relationship with your environment, a reality compounded by a medical system that frequently dismisses marginalised or complex identities.

Meera Duncan
Counsellor/Therapist, Honorary Doctorate Psychology, Counselling Therapist,Clinical Counselling Hypnotherapist, & Author
Are you struggling with chronic pain or illness?
Clinical Hypnotherapy is proven to have dramatic results in reducing pain levels. I utilize clinical hypnosis and hypnotherapy, tapping, counselling, and cognitive behavioural therapy with clients to reduce the physical and emotional toll this pain creates. I myself was severely injured in an elevator accident in 1998 and accidentally discovered hypnosis after a decade of debilitating severe chronic pain levels. Hypnosis changed everything for me which is why I became a Clinical Hypnotherapist. If you are ready to begin your journey of healing please contact me today.

Melissa Huang
Registered Psychotherapist, (Qualifying), MA
Living with chronic pain or illness means grieving the life you planned while building one your body can hold, often while feeling dismissed or unseen. The frustration, the isolation, the identity questions that come with a changed body: these deserve real attention, not just symptom checklists. You'll find a warm, nonjudgmental space here to process what illness has changed, work with the anxiety and low mood that often travel with it, and reconnect with what still brings you meaning. The goal isn't just to endure, it's to genuinely understand your relationship with your body, build habits that nourish rather than deplete you, and find fulfillment within your reality. Together we'll work toward feeling more grounded, more at peace with your body, and more equipped for the life in front of you.

Marjan Emami
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
Chronic pain and illness often reflect unresolved emotional trauma, where repressed emotions and chronic stress can rewire the nervous system. In my approach, we explore the root of the pain to identify the emotions that have not been fully expressed or processed. By focusing on the whole person, not just the symptoms, we work on cultivating self-compassion, emotional awareness, and reconnecting the mind and body.
