Chronic Pain
Somatic Healing Arts, Psychotherapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (qualifying), MA-ExAT
Chronic pain and illness affect not just the body, but the mind and emotions as well. They can show up as tension, fatigue, stress, or a sense of being disconnected from one’s body. Approaches like art therapy and sensorimotor therapy gently engage both body and mind, helping release stored tension, improve bodily awareness, manage emotional stress, and foster a greater sense of resilience, agency, and well-being despite ongoing health challenges.

Chronic Pain
Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
Living with chronic illness or chronic pain can feel all-consuming and exhausting, affecting your physical health, emotional well-being, mental health, and day-to-day functioning. It often involves significant grief—particularly if diagnosis comes later in life—as you adjust to changes in your body, abilities, identity, and the way you move through the world.
I have a personal understanding of this experience, as I was diagnosed with Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome in my late 20s. Navigating chronic pain and nervous system dysregulation has been an ongoing process of learning, adaptation, and finding new ways to support my body and wellbeing.
In our work together, we focus on reconnecting with self, building resilience, and developing sustainable strategies for daily life. This includes cultivating self-compassion, strengthening nervous system regulation, and identifying supportive resources and pacing that honour your capacity.
I draw from Adlerian Therapy, IFS, ACT, EMDR and somatic therapy to support both emotional processing and practical coping. Together, we work toward creating a more balanced and manageable way of living with chronic illness or pain.
I offer both in-person and virtual counselling sessions. You’re welcome to reach out or visit my website to book a free 20-minute phone consultation to learn more about my approach.

Chronic Pain
Darren Williamson
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC (#23397)
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.

Chronic Pain
Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
Living with chronic pain or illness doesn't just hurt your body—it isolates you, shrinks your world, and makes you feel invisible to those who can't understand. I see you, and I know how the physical suffering entangles with grief, frustration, identity loss, and fear. Together, we'll work toward emotional freedom even when physical limitations remain. You'll learn how others have found meaning and peace despite ongoing pain, discover tools for nervous system regulation that reduce suffering's grip, and reclaim agency over your inner life. Healing isn't about fixing what can't be fixed—it's about living fully despite it. You're not alone anymore.

Chronic Pain
Yanna Martinek
Counsellor/Therapist, R.C.C.
I bring both lived and professional experience working with chronic illness and pain, and predominantly use Pain Reprocessing Therapy to support meaningful change. This approach focuses on retraining the brain’s response to symptoms, reducing fear, and restoring a sense of safety in the body. The aim is not to invalidate your experience, but to open new pathways for relief. Chronic illness can be deeply isolating and you don’t have to navigate it alone.

Chronic Pain
Alex Henderson
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, B.A
I bring lived experience and both with chronic illness and pain as well as an intimate knowledge of how therapy can interface with these experiences. I recognise the grief and rage that can become key markers of our lives when we experience these conditions and I understand how anger and sadness can become braided and fused when we think about our bodies and our health. Nothing is too much for me to hear and everything is welcome when we discuss health.
