Chronic Pain
Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
Living with chronic pain or illness doesn't just hurt your body—it isolates you, shrinks your world, and makes you feel invisible to those who can't understand. I see you, and I know how the physical suffering entangles with grief, frustration, identity loss, and fear. Together, we'll work toward emotional freedom even when physical limitations remain. You'll learn how others have found meaning and peace despite ongoing pain, discover tools for nervous system regulation that reduce suffering's grip, and reclaim agency over your inner life. Healing isn't about fixing what can't be fixed—it's about living fully despite it. You're not alone anymore.

Chronic Pain
Donna McLean
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, BA Honours (Psychology), MSW, RSW
Chronic pain or illness can feel limiting , making it hard to find pleasure in life. I know, having lived with a chronic illness for decades. I can travel with you as you navigate these challenges, and offer tools for managing some of the psychological struggle that goes along with the physical struggle; struggles like "why me", the stress and pain of trying to get through the day, feeling different from others, and the uncertainty and helplessness you may feel. There are tools like grounding, mindfulness and acceptance I can help you with, and we can do work with past experiences that may be contributing to some of your present psychological suffering.

Chronic Pain

If you are living with chronic pain or illness, you may feel exhausted in ways that are hard to explain.

At Selah Counselling, we recognize that chronic pain and illness affect both body and mind. We provide a compassionate space where you can process frustration, grief, fear, and fatigue without feeling dismissed. Our work includes support for the nervous system, coping strategies for flare-ups, pacing skills, and help rebuilding a sense of agency in your current reality. The goal is not to deny the hardship, but to strengthen resilience, increase emotional steadiness, and help you live with greater clarity and hope even within ongoing physical challenges.

Chronic Pain
Meredith Dow
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CPC
As a covid-conscious therapist, I want to ensure that Meadowinds is a safe space for clients who are vulnerable or suffering from chronic illness.
Our current dystopian reality can bring up so many feelings of grief, loneliness, despair, anger... and yet often the supports and resources we've relied on in the past to help us through challenges are not as accessible today.
Whether you want a safe space to process your own emotions, losses, and challenges with the ongoing pandemic, or you just want a therapist who won't pathologise your precautions as you seek support for other concerns, I'm here for you.
At Meadowinds, sessions are available either in person with masking or on an online video platform from the comfort of your home.
Current office protocols include running an air purifier with HEPA filtration, staggering sessions to limit contact in the waiting room, and transitioning to an online session if symptomatic.

Chronic Pain
Arne Pedersen - Hypnotherapy Victoria
Hypnotherapist, RCCH
Living with chronic pain or long-term illness can be physically exhausting and emotionally overwhelming. Beyond the symptoms themselves, many people find their nervous system becomes stuck in a state of vigilance, tension, or struggle, making it difficult for the body to rest, regulate, and heal.
From a mindfulness-based perspective, pain is often understood as the body’s way of communicating that something needs attention or change. When signals from the body are ignored or pushed through over time, the nervous system may respond by amplifying those signals — not as punishment, but as an attempt to be heard and protected.
Thoughts, emotions, and perception also play an important role. Ongoing fear, resistance, pessimism, or self-judgment can be reflected in the body as tension and unease, much like waking from a bad dream with the body still holding fear. Over time, this lack of internal ease can interrupt the body’s natural flow and regulation, contributing to persistent pain.
Chronic pain also commonly goes hand-in-hand with disrupted or poor-quality sleep. When the body doesn’t have enough opportunity to rest deeply, its ability to repair, replenish, and heal is reduced, which can further reinforce pain and fatigue.
In our work together, the focus is on gently restoring a sense of safety, awareness, and ease within the body. Through mindfulness practices, breath awareness, and body-based attention, clients learn how to relate differently to physical sensations, reduce resistance, and support the nervous system in settling.
Hypnotherapy can further support this process by helping update subconscious protective patterns and creating felt experiences of calm and safety that also support more restorative rest. While this work does not replace medical care, many people find that as regulation improves, both pain and sleep begin to shift in more supportive ways.
