Chronic Pain
Kayzim Suárez-Reyes
Psychologist, PhD
I have specialized expertise in the psychological components of chronic pain, recognizing that persistent pain involves complex interactions between the body and mind. I work with clients to move beyond the biomedical model by employing evidence-based strategies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for Chronic Pain and acceptance-based approaches. My focus is on reducing pain-related distress, managing the associated symptoms like insomnia and depression, and decreasing the fear-avoidance cycle. By understanding the brain's role in pain perception, I help clients build resilience, increase their daily functioning, and improve their overall quality of life, even while living with pain. I also live with chronic pain (nerve pain) and know how challenging it is to manage the psychological aspects of it!

Empowered Wellbeing, Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery Support
Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
For clients with Chronic Health Conditions, often we encourage brain retraining via Gupta or other programs as an adjunct, and/or bio/neurofeedback including SSP, which we can offer remotely. Our practice focuses more on the deeper care for what might have been the conditions prior to the chronic health condition setting in, or work from a remote CranioSacral model. Clients might also seek functional and/or integrative approach to easing and managing symptoms and flares. We could apply an intersectional lens to work through ableism trauma as well, as an example.

Chronic Pain
Viktoria Walda Byczkiewicz, Ph.D.
Pre-Licensed Professional, PhD
Chronic pain or illness leaves us feeling drained and devoid of energy. Being sick and tired works on the mind and body like a downward spiral from which it feels like there is no escape. You can learn to co-exist with pain and illness; to keep on living life even with compromises, and to manage the pain psychologically, with ease. It is possible to begin enjoying activities that you used to, again. It is possible to keep on going!

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.

Chronic Pain
Elaine Skoulas
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
Living with chronic pain or illness can be exhausting, especially when symptoms are invisible, misunderstood, or difficult to explain. Many people feel caught between medical answers that do not fully help and a body that continues to signal distress. I specialize in working with chronic pain and mind-body symptoms using Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) and nervous system-based approaches. Our work together explores how stress, trauma, and protective patterns in the nervous system can influence physical symptoms while honoring the real complexity of living with pain or illness.

Jennifer Bearden
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Living with chronic pain or illness often brings immense emotional weight, fatigue, and distress. Our work will focus on changing your relationship to the pain itself so that your overall suffering lessens. We'll utilize proven, collaborative methods to help you unhook from the internal struggle with your symptoms, accepting your current reality not as surrender, but as a foundation for moving forward. Simultaneously, we'll explore what you truly value in life and commit to pursuing those things, even when pain is present. I'll support you in healing the emotional and psychological 'parts' of you that feel burdened or overwhelmed, helping you find self-compassion and moments of restoration by connecting with the natural world.
