Chronic Pain
Chris Guthrey
Psychologist, PsyD
I use several approaches to work with chronic pain and illness. ACT encourages individuals to accept pain rather than struggle against it, promoting engagement in meaningful activities despite discomfort. Mindfulness cultivates present-moment awareness, helping individuals become less reactive to pain sensations. Psychodynamic therapy explores unconscious patterns of how you may react to the perception of your condition in order to rewire those responses.

Chronic Pain
Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I wonder if you notice any difference in your body right now, at this very moment. Can you sit with it a second longer? Perhaps, there is a small part of your body that is not feeling as strained, knotted, tingly, throbbing, or numb as it was before you made this decision to read therapist's profiles?
Through an attachment somatic therapy approach, we'll pendulate from identifying and enjoying these small to large wonderful exhales of relief from pain with intentional befriending and curiosity towards pain in a welcoming of all parts of you to be recognized, heard, and validated in a journey towards the freedom to live an engaged life of presence with yourself, your dreams, your responsibilities, and your relationships.

Chronic Pain
Talia Chanoff
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I offer therapy for individuals living with chronic illness and chronic pain in a way that honors the wisdom of your body and the realities of ongoing symptoms. I understand that there is a deeply complex relationship between ongoing pain and our emotional worlds. Our work creates space to explore the emotional, relational, and nervous system impacts of living in a body that may feel unpredictable or demanding, and connecting with your body's needs, without pressure to push through or "fix." Some of our work might focus on building self-compassion, exploring grief and sadness related to chronic illness, and cultivating sustainable ways of caring for yourself rooted in dignity, agency, and meaning, even in the presence of pain and discomfort.

Chronic Pain
Heidi Hartston
Psychologist, PhD
Life can change dramatically and suddenly from an injury or chronic illness. Your pain might be invisible to others who don't understand what you're going through or why your participation in activities has changed. Some days it takes heroic courage and determination just to do ordinary things. Working with an experienced therapist can be a game changer in finding ways to reclaim as much or your life as possible. Some suffering and loss is unavoidable. But there are strategies that minimize pain and reduce the secondary consequences that shrink your life. I combine insightful, caring depth work with evidence based techniques that are most effective in freeing you from unnecessary suffering and helping you get back to the happy, interactive activities that are meaningful to you.

When Pain or Illness Shapes Your Days
Living with ongoing pain or illness can quietly take over your life. You may look “fine” to others while inside you’re exhausted from trying to manage symptoms, appointments, and emotions that come with them. It’s common to feel frustrated with your body, anxious about flare-ups, or isolated when people don’t truly understand what you’re going through. You might notice that the harder you fight your pain, the more your stress and tension grow. You may grieve the life you used to have, or feel guilty for not being able to “push through” like you once did.
In our work together, we’ll use a structured, evidence-based approach called TEAM-CBT to help you reduce emotional suffering, even when physical symptoms remain. You’ll learn practical tools to:
Ease the anxiety, frustration, and guilt that often accompany chronic conditions
Calm the mind–body loop that keeps pain and stress feeding each other
Reconnect with your body as an ally rather than an enemy
Build confidence in managing daily life with greater balance and compassion
Our sessions combine cognitive and emotional tools with mindfulness-based practices. You’ll track your progress each week and practice brief daily exercises that retrain the brain’s stress response — supporting both emotional and physical resilience.
I BELIEVE:
Pain and illness don’t define you — they reveal your strength and capacity to adapt.
Emotional healing supports physical healing; they work together, not apart.
You deserve care that honors your whole experience, not just your symptoms.
Acceptance doesn’t mean giving up; it means finding peace even in uncertainty.
Humor, gentleness, and self-compassion are powerful forms of medicine.
Also Integrated In Our Work:
• Interpersonal Work – to strengthen connection and empower you to be yourself using The 5 Secrets of Effective Communication
• Mindful Self-Compassion – to cultivate a gentler, kinder inner voice through the work of Dr. Kristin Neff
• Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) – to regulate the nervous system and support trauma recovery alongside cognitive tools for a well-rounded approach

Chronic Pain
Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychotherapist & Psychoanalyst
Chronic pain weaves so silently into one's emotional life and inner world. I attend closely to the relationship between unconscious emotional processes and the body when working with clients living with chronic pain. Together, we examine how longstanding stress, trauma, and unarticulated concerns may be expressed somatically. Over time, this analytic process can support greater psychological integration and a more stable, workable relationship with the body, rather than focusing solely on short-term symptom relief.
