Chronic Pain
Kristen Jackson Banister
Counselor/Therapist, M.A. LPC SEP
Living with chronic pain or illness can be physically and emotionally exhausting. It often affects your identity, relationships, and sense of control. In therapy, we explore the connection between body, stress, and emotional experience—supporting nervous system regulation, resilience, and self-compassion. This work is not about “fixing” your body, but about changing your relationship to what you’re carrying.

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.

Levana Slabodnick
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LISW-S, LCSW
Living with chronic pain and illness, especially when invisible takes it toll on our humanity. Chronic conditions cause isolation, depression and suffering and lead to feelings of hopelessness. I use trauma focused therapy as well as hypnotherapy to help you learn to care for yourself and manage the emotional and physical impact of chronic illness.

Chronic Pain
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.

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC-S, NCC, CCMHC
When you are dealing with chronic pain or illness, it is helpful to have a neutral party with whom you can share your daily struggles. It is important to be able to live life and put your best face forward, and equally important to have professional help where you can share your thoughts and feelings about what you are going through.
