Chronic Pain
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.

Hypnotherapy for Chronic Pain & Illness: Find Relief, Restore Balance
Living with chronic pain or illness can feel exhausting, frustrating, and at times, overwhelming. When pain takes over, it can impact not only your body but also your mind, emotions, and overall well-being. But what if you could train your mind to experience relief, comfort, and control?

✔ Improve Sleep & Energy Levels – Break the cycle of pain, fatigue, and stress.

Chronic Pain
MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
I have made Chronic Illness and Pain a specialty in my practice and I have trained with some of the leading experts in that area. I have worked with many chronic pain sufferers, often eliminating all their pain even when it has been a long standing problem. As far as illnesses go, I have been able to eliminate all the symptoms of a client who was suffering from Progressive Supranuclear Palsy, a degenerative neurological condition related to ALS or Lou Gehrigs disease. When I first met him, he had been degenerating for 12 years, was confined to a wheelchair, could no longer speak, drooled constantly, suffered from tremors and repetitive movements, inability to sleep and he lacked motivation to do his physical therapy, the only treatment doctors could offer him. With no treatment or drugs for his condition, doctors expected him to die soon most likely from choking as he lost control of his swallowing. After one session, we stopped the tremors and repetitive movements, got him to sleep more soundly and do his PT. After a second session he was able to speak again and walk again. After 5 sessions one couldn't even tell he was sick and now 6 years later he is still gardening, walking his dog, hiking in the mountains. Soon after I worked with a gentleman who had developed an adult onset form of Muscular Dystrophy called Myotonic Dystrophy. Only 45 years old, he suffered from severe chronic fatigue, finding himself unable to get out of bed in the morning, taking hours to stand up. He had muscular pain and rigidity, painful joints and various digestive issues. The morning after our first session, he woke up full of energy and jumped out of bed. After a few more sessions we eliminated all his physical symptoms as well as clearing several emotional issues that had plagued him his whole life. Recently he contacted me to update me and report his still feeling good. I have also worked with clients with MS and Parkinsons> This past year I trained and certified in treating IBS and other gut conditions, learning a protocol which is considered the most effective treatment for these issues. I have also trained and certified in Hypno-Oncology, enabling me to support patients on their Cancer journey to deal with pain, anxiety, and the effects of treatment such as nausea. Recently, I worked with a woman with stage 4 lung Cancer. Her only hope was a new experimental protocol that involved a long needle inserted into the stomach. She had a lifelong needle phobia and was terrified. After the first grueling treatment she came home and cried and vomited for 3 days. After one session she went in for her second treatment and she was able to laugh and sing show tunes with the nurses throughout the treatment, felt no pain and went home calm and relaxed.

Susanne R Mealer

Chronic pain is not just dealing with the pain and dealing with illness is not just about dealing with a specific illness. Often, these issues can lead to depression, anxiety, anger and resentment and they affect every relationship you have including the one with yourself.

Chronic Pain
Nicole Merrigan, LPA, PLLC
Psychologist, MA, LPA
Managing a chronic health condition is a profound physical and emotional challenge. Often, the suffering is compounded by "non-acceptance"—the painful, exhausting mental struggle of fighting against a reality you cannot control. Drawing from mindfulness, DBT, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I help you navigate the complex grief and stress that accompany illness. Research shows that mindfulness actively reduces the physical stress response in the body. While we cannot always change your physical diagnosis, we can work together to cultivate deep self-compassion, reduce emotional suffering, and help you build a meaningful, rich life within the reality of your health.

Chronic Pain
Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Living with chronic pain or illness is not just a physical experience—it impacts your energy, your identity, your relationships, and how you move through daily life. Many people find themselves navigating medical systems that feel dismissive, confusing, or exhausting, while also trying to keep up with responsibilities that don’t adjust to their reality. There can be grief, frustration, isolation, and the ongoing pressure to “push through,” even when your body is asking for something different. Cultural beliefs about health, productivity, and worth can make this even harder, especially when your experience is minimized or not fully understood.
At Nour Counseling, we take your experience seriously. We work with you to understand how chronic pain or illness is affecting you—not just physically, but emotionally and mentally—and help you build ways of coping that are actually sustainable. This might include pacing, boundary-setting, navigating medical interactions, managing uncertainty, and finding ways to stay connected to yourself and your life even within limitations. We also make space for the systemic and cultural factors that shape your experience, so you’re not carrying that context alone. This work is about supporting you in creating a life that feels more manageable, more aligned, and more compassionate toward your body as it is.

Erin, Megan, Baillie, and Hannah all live with and work with clients who experienced chronic pain or illness. While everyone's experience is different and we do not assume that we fully understand your pain, each of us also understands that there is a certain element of chronic illness or disability that is hard to "get" unless you have experienced it yourself, firsthand. We aim to make therapy make sense for you and your life, not diminish or invalidate your reality.
