Celeste Tomasulo
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I understand firsthand how difficult and isolating living with a chronic illness can be. Family members and friends try their best to be supportive, but ultimately can’t understand what we're experiencing. Doctors can be dismissive and are often as much of a source of frustration as our symptoms. Chronic illness isn’t just about physical symptoms that impact our quality of life, but also the emotional overwhelm of adjusting to new limitations. I provide a safe space to help those struggling with chronic illness process these overwhelming emotions and cope with the loss of a pre-diagnosis life in the hopes of gaining a better understanding of a post-diagnosis identity. Together, we explore thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that impact symptom development and work towards an improved quality of life.

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.

As a lifelong mindfulness practitioner and trained mindfulness teacher, I have background in managing chronic pain and illness. I have been trained in MBSR (mindfulness-based stress reduction via the Pain Clinic at U Mass) and also experience chronic illness myself (through long-COVID). I bring anything useful I've learned along the way to my clients, including mindfulness approaches, polyvagal techniques for deep rest and healing, and practical approaches to pacing one's life with a chronic condition.

Living with chronic pain or illness can be exhausting, both physically and emotionally. It often impacts your mood, energy, and ability to keep up with everyday life. In therapy we will create space to process what you are going through while also building tools to manage stress, adjust to limitations, and find a sense of balance. The goal is to help you feel more supported and better able to cope with the ongoing challenges you face.

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.

Margaret Graham
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCPC, LPCC
When medical interventions have reached their limits, clinical hypnosis offers new possibilities for pain management and improved quality of life. My work in this area is supported by robust clinical evidence showing significant reductions in pain intensity through hypnotherapeutic techniques. I help clients develop personalized pain management protocols that address the psychological dimensions of chronic pain. Through targeted hypnotic suggestion and mind-body techniques, clients often experience meaningful relief while developing greater agency in their relationship with pain. Our work focuses not just on symptom reduction but on reclaiming aspects of life that pain may have diminished.

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.

Bonnie Rae
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I have personal experience with chronic pain, illness and autoimmune diseases, which helps my clients feel seen and understood. I've witnessed how pain and symptoms can flair up during times of stress or when emotions aren't being fully felt. One of the gifts of my work is witnessing chronic pain move out of the body when trauma and suppressed emotions are released. I've helped numerous people navigate life altering diagnoses, cancer, IBS, Crohn's Disease, Lupus, Alopecia, Hashimotos Disease, and more.

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!

Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Living with chronic illness, chronic pain, disability, EDS, dysautonomia, Long COVID, autoimmune conditions, and other complex health challenges often requires carrying far more than symptoms alone. It can involve grief, uncertainty, medical trauma, identity shifts, fluctuating capacity, inaccessible systems, financial strain, changing relationships, and the ongoing labor of adapting to a body whose needs may change from one day to the next.
My work recognizes that living with chronic illness is not simply a medical experience. It is also a nervous system experience, an emotional experience, a relational experience, and often a deeply existential one. Together, we create space for the realities of grief, relief, adaptation, advocacy, relationship, resilience, choice, and survival while exploring ways to reconnect with your body that are rooted in compassion rather than conflict and pushing through.
Drawing from both clinical expertise and lived experience navigating complex chronic health conditions, I understand how easy it can be to internalize narratives that equate worth with productivity, independence, consistency, or achievement. Our work centers honoring your body's wisdom, challenging internalized narratives, cultivating self-trust, and building a life that supports your wellbeing rather than requiring you to constantly override your needs.

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.
