Chronic Pain
Dr. Ann Becker-Schutte; Healthy Balanced Life Psychology, LLC
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Our physical and emotional health are intimately connected. When you are living a body that is unreliable or in pain, that can create relationship stress, depression and anxiety. Throughout my career, I have focused on the unique challenges faced by patients or caregivers who are coping with serious illness.

Chronic Pain
Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
For individuals with invisible chronic illnesses, hiding your pain all the time becomes exhausting. With a chronic health issue, you don’t get to choose when you’re in pain and when you’re not, and as such, I keep my cancellation policy flexible so that I can best support you. There is often a great deal of shame surrounding chronic illness, and significant stigma as well, both from the medical community and society at large. This can lead to depression and anxiety, both medical anxiety and social anxiety. I want to work with you to ensure that your chronic illness does not completely shape your mental health. As someone who suffers from a chronic pain condition, I am understanding and aware of the unique challenges that diagnoses such as fibromyalgia, Ehlers-Danlos, Dysautonomia, arthritis, and cancer have on an individual’s personal, romantic, and professional life. My goal is to help each patient understand and accept these diagnoses and work together to manage both the physical symptoms as well as the mental turmoil that can occur while trying to live life in an able-bodied world.

Chronic Pain
Monica Grey
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Chronic pain and sleep have a vicious cycle: pain makes it harder to fall and stay asleep, and poor sleep lowers your pain threshold, making everything hurt more. Over time, this loop amplifies fatigue, irritability, and emotional exhaustion — leaving you feeling stuck in a body that won't cooperate. I help clients break that cycle by targeting the sleep side of the equation with CBT-I, while also building strategies to manage the emotional weight of living with ongoing pain or illness. When we improve your sleep, we're not just giving you better nights — we're giving your body a better chance to cope with what it's carrying during the day.

Chronic Pain
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.

Chronic Pain
Dr. Daisy Vélez

Using mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mind-body strategies, we’ll work together to help you move through pain and illness without being defined by them—so you can reconnect with meaning, resilience, and the life you want to live.

Chronic Pain
Andrea Miller
Counselor/Therapist, NCC
In my sessions with clients dealing with chronic pain or illness, I often incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help them develop mindfulness skills, accept their condition, and commit to living a fulfilling life despite their challenges. Additionally, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) assists clients in identifying and modifying negative thought patterns and behaviors related to their pain or illness, empowering them to manage their symptoms more effectively. By using Solution-Focused Brief Therapy techniques, I help clients identify their strengths and resources, encouraging them to focus on achievable goals and solutions to enhance their quality of life despite their ongoing health issues.

I employ a multidimensional approach to address chronic pain or illness, integrating techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness-Based approaches to help clients manage pain-related distress and improve quality of life. Additionally, I utilize Attachment-based techniques to explore the emotional impact of chronic pain and its relation to early attachment experiences.

Chronic Pain
Nancy Hayes-Gary, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, MD , Psy.D.
Hypnosis once again works with most people learning to control their pain. Chronic illness too can come with more losses than a loss of some functioning. These are often very stressful conditions, requiring someone to adjust their sense of themselves to fit new situations.

Chronic Pain
Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
You’ve been told it’s “just stress,” that “your labs look fine,” or that maybe it’s “all in your head.” But deep down, you know something’s not right. Living with chronic pain or illness—especially when it’s invisible to others—can feel both physically exhausting and emotionally isolating. Maybe you’re grieving the life you once had, constantly justifying your experience to people who don’t understand, or quietly wondering if you’re just supposed to push through. Dr. Jenny Shields offers something different: a space where you don’t have to prove your pain to be taken seriously.
With warmth, respect, and clinical expertise, Dr. Shields works with people navigating the complex realities of illness—whether you’ve recently received a diagnosis, are stuck in a cycle of uncertainty, or have been managing symptoms for years. Drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness-based tools, and trauma-informed care, she helps you move through grief, frustration, and fear with compassion. Together, you’ll explore how to live a meaningful life in a body that doesn’t always cooperate—on your own terms.
