Juliana Sloane
Hypnotherapist, CHT
I work with many clients facing chronic illness and health challenges, including long covid, lyme disease, CIRS, cancer, infertility, and more. As a person living with a complex chronic condition myself, I have found hypnotherapy to be an incredible tool for building hope, vitality, and symptom relief. I love sharing this impactful modality with clients so they can live their best life, even in the face of a life altering health issue. Whether you are preparing for surgery or IVF and want to feel more comfortable, need more tools for effective symptom relief, or searching for mind-body support for grief, isolation, and anxiety that so often accompanies health challenges, hypnosis can be a powerful option.

Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
Typically, Chronic Pain Syndrome patients come to see a psychologist after being seen by a number of other health professionals to no avail, including internal medicine physicians, orthopedists, surgeons, orthopedic surgeons, neurosurgeons, physical therapists, chiropractors, acupuncturists, emergency room doctors (for late-night injections of powerful pain killing drugs) and others. Typically, a Chronic Pain evaluation consists of several approaches to discovering which factors play the largest role in maintaining the pain. We ask patients to keep a Pain Diary for a week or two, which helps us pinpoint which activities or emotional states are related to an increase in pain level. This also helps us observe how they are actually taking their medications. We may also perform psychological testing to determine any underlying causes of depression or anxiety which should be treated in addition to the Chronic Pain and which could be helping to maintain it. At least one Family Session is held to explore whether there have been unconscious payoffs within the family for being in pain.

Susanne R Mealer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
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.

Elemental Self Institute
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
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.

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.

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.

Soma Aloia, SoulWork Somatics & Somatic Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCST, HES
Living with chronic pain or illness can be physically, emotionally, spiritually, and financially exhausting. Our work honors the wisdom of your body while supporting greater resilience, self-compassion, and a more connected relationship with yourself. We address healing medical trauma, developmental trauma, and chronic stress, all of which create inflammation and chronic illness and pain.
Note: I specialize in helping thoughtful, sensitive adults whose symptoms don't fit neatly into one category. Anxiety, chronic inflammation, complex trauma, nervous system dysregulation, relationship patterns, burnout, and feeling disconnected from yourself often share deeper physiological and early developmental roots.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Managing chronic pain and illness exhausts many of the social and personal resources we have just to get through the day. Feelings of isolation and being alone in this struggle are insidious and can take away from our ability to remain connected to others and within ourselves. Whether it is not wanting to burden others with our struggle or feelings of hopelessness, people need to know (and feel) that they are valuable enough to continue to be cared for while also provided with space through encouragement that honors our autonomy.
