Chronic pain counseling focuses on helping individuals cope with the ongoing challenges that come with living in pain. Chronic pain can affect so much more than just physical health, it often impacts mood, relationships, daily functioning, and overall emotional well-being.

Beth Kurland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Living with chronic pain or illness can feel all-consuming, touching every aspect of daily life. Physically, the body can get caught in patterns of protection—staying in fight, flight, or freeze mode. Mentally, negative thoughts and fears can take hold, intensifying distress. Over time, life may begin to feel smaller and more restricted. My approach addresses the whole person: helping the body find balance and safety, the mind find perspective and calm, and daily life expand again toward meaningful, nourishing experiences. Together, we’ll work toward helping you live with greater ease, resilience, and a renewed sense of possibility.

Carey Luker
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC, LPC
Living with chronic pain or a chronic illness can be incredibly draining, not just physically, but emotionally too. It’s hard carrying the stress of symptoms, appointments, fatigue, and the feeling that life takes so much more effort than it seems to for everyone else. Many people also struggle with anxiety, frustration, grief, isolation, or feeling misunderstood by those around them. My goal is to create a space where you don’t have to minimize what you’re going through or hold it all together alone. Together, we focus on finding support, coping tools, self-compassion, and ways to make life feel a little lighter, more manageable, and more supportive of your needs.

Stephanie Miodus
Psychologist, PhD, NCSP
I work with children, teens, young adults, and families coping with the emotional effects of chronic illness, including medical trauma and anxiety related to ongoing treatment or past hospitalizations. Living with a health condition can be overwhelming, and it is common to develop fears around medical procedures, separation, or loss of control. I provide therapy to help you or your child process these experiences, build coping strategies, and regain a sense of safety and confidence. I also support parents in navigating their own stress while learning how to respond in ways that ease anxiety and promote resilience.

Dyani Saxby
Psychologist, Ph.D., ABPP, DBSM
There is a difference between living with chronic pain and suffering with it. Suffering includes depression, unresolved grief, anxiety, isolation, and withdrawal. Chronic pain can cause these feelings because we grieve what we used to be able to do and feel that pain robs us of living a full life. Sometimes we feel like we lose ourselves entirely. When we are in a depressed or anxious mood state for a long period of time, we actually end up experiencing worse pain (and often worse sleep), which results in a vicious cycle that can feel impossible to break. The good news is that I have helped hundreds of patients improve how they respond to their pain and also lower their overall pain levels. They began to accept what they cannot control and also learn how to have more control over their pain levels through techniques such as physical pacing, relaxation, and clinical hypnosis. With board certifications in clinical health psychology, behavioral sleep medicine, and extensive training in clinical hypnosis, I can teach you skills to break the cycle of chronic pain and suffering.

Dr. David Ransen
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT, CHt
There are a great many chronic ailments which medical specialists either don't yet understand or cannot treat successfully. These doctors often refer their patients to me for clinical hypnotherapy, which is supported by over 75 years of published scientific evidence of efficacy for challenging chronic illness and pain. The list is long, and includes such common ailments as lower back pain (often post-surgery), IBS and other digestive system pain, fibromyalgia and mysterious non-arthritic joint pain, severe headaches, and many more. All tend to respond exceedingly well (80% to 98% enduring relief) from clinical hypnotherapy when administered by an experienced certified therapist.

Dr Todd Giardina
Psychologist, PhD, Counseling Psychology
I trained in chronic pain management in many hospitals during my PhD program and beyond. I have since worked in hospitals and clinics for many years before transitioning into private practice. I understand much of the medical lingo and the confusing messaging one can receive from MDs - I can help put you at ease while also teaching you to advocate for yourself around your illness. The biggest component with chronic pain, of course, is acknowledging the interplay between mental and physical pain - "it's all in your head" is a dismissive statement some may hear, but also we work from the truth that pain is somewhat in your head, and that is how a psychologist can help you learn to manage physical pain.

As your therapist, I understand the challenges of dealing with chronic illness; I work hard to manage my autoimmune conditions and the resulting painful symptoms.

Together, we will explore the root causes of your distress and work towards creating effective solutions for a more fulfilling life while managing your symptoms. Using a variety of therapeutic modalities—including Somatic Therapies, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, Eye Movement Integration, Internal Family Systems, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Emotional Freedom Techniques—we will empower you to develop insight and strategies that enhance your resilience and lifestyle. You are not alone on this journey; I will support you during this challenging time.
