Chronic Pain
Dr. Patrick McGrath
Psychologist, O.C., C. Psychologist
Living with chronic pain or a persistent health condition—such as fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), or chronic headaches—takes a profound physical and emotional toll. The mind and body are deeply connected, and dealing with invisible symptoms can often leave you feeling isolated or fatigued by constant management. Using a collaborative, evidence-based cognitive behavioural approach, we will work together to help you navigate the heavy emotional weight of chronic illness, pace your energy, and develop compassionate strategies to improve your quality of life and restore a sense of agency.

Chronic Pain
Mindful Connections Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist
Living with chronic pain or illness means grieving the life you planned while building one your body can hold, often while feeling dismissed or unseen. The frustration, the isolation, the identity questions that come with a changed body: these deserve real attention, not just symptom checklists. You'll find a warm, nonjudgmental space here to process what illness has changed, work with the anxiety and low mood that often travel with it, and reconnect with what still brings you meaning. The goal isn't just to endure, it's to genuinely understand your relationship with your body, build habits that nourish rather than deplete you, and find fulfillment within your reality. Together we'll work toward feeling more grounded, more at peace with your body, and more equipped for the life in front of you.

Chronic Pain
Dr. Kim Edwards
Psychologist, C.Psych.
Can chronic pain get better?
Yes! Our brain changes and adapt throughout our lifetime (i.e., this is called neuroplasticity). Habits are essentially strengthened roads or pathways when we repeatedly do or feel or think in the same way. When we continue to travel the same road or pathway, we strengthen the habit. When we form a new habit, we make new connections and old pathways are used less/weakened. The more we travel the pathway, the more our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours become second nature (e.g., like brushing teeth).
In chronic pain, the nervous system and brain have changed due to neuroplasticity in an unhelpful way. The good news is that we all have the ability to learn and change by rewiring our brain.
Join our clinicians to participate in our 10-session Mind-Body Connection program designed to teach you strategies to manage chronic pain. Meet Laura, our awesome physiotherapist who can also provide additional strategies.
Some of our coaches have:
• Helped to start one of the largest pediatric chronic pain programs at a children’s hospital in Ontario
• Currently also at hospital chronic pain clinics
• Completed dissertation projects on chronic pain and are actively involved in ongoing research
• Hold leadership positions on regional and national chronic pain committees
• Hold academic appointments at well respected universities in which they teach and supervise trainees in the field of chronic pain
• Start psychosocial oncology programs in hospitals

Chronic Pain
Anna Skomorovskaia (Sky)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
I chose to work with chronic pain because I recognize the significant impact it can have on a person's quality of life. Chronic pain is a complex and often debilitating condition that can cause physical, emotional, and social challenges. It can also lead to anxiety, depression, and other mental health concerns. I believe that by addressing the emotional and psychological aspects of chronic pain, individuals can better manage their symptoms and improve their overall well-being. Through therapy, I work collaboratively with my clients to learn the roots of difficulties, explore their thoughts and feelings about chronic pain and develop coping strategies to manage their symptoms. I am committed to providing a supportive and compassionate space where my clients can feel heard and understood, and I am dedicated to helping them improve their quality of life.

Chronic Pain
Natalia Vyzhol
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Living with Chronic Pain or Illness
Chronic conditions affect more than just the body—they shape how we think, feel, relate, and move through daily life. My approach is designed to meet these challenges with depth, flexibility, and compassion.
Rather than focusing solely on symptom relief, I support a process of self-awareness, emotional regulation, and mind-body integration. Together, we explore how pain is experienced physically and emotionally, and how subconscious patterns may influence the way it’s held in the body.
My Approach Includes:
• Thoughtfully tailored support based on your unique condition, needs, and goals
• Integration of therapeutic modalities including CBT, mindfulness, psychosomatic awareness, and Gestalt principles
• Ongoing reflection and adjustment to meet what’s emerging in your process
• Attention to both physical discomfort and emotional impact—without rushing or bypassing
This work is about learning to live in relationship with your body, not in battle with it. It’s about building resilience, expanding choice, and finding new ways to move forward—one step at a time.

Chronic Pain
Robert M. Lee
Registered Psychotherapist
Chronic pain and illness are not just physical experiences—they affect the mind, emotions, and sense of self. My approach integrates mindfulness, somatic awareness, and depth psychology to help you navigate the psychological and emotional impact of ongoing pain. We explore the mind-body connection, recognizing how stress, trauma, and unconscious patterns can shape your experience of pain. Rather than fighting your body, therapy helps you develop a compassionate, attuned relationship with it—building resilience, reducing suffering, and fostering a sense of agency in your healing process.

Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Living with chronic pain or illness can affect your mood, identity, relationships, sleep, and sense of control. Therapy can offer support for the emotional weight of ongoing health challenges while helping you develop self-compassion, pacing, acceptance, and coping strategies. My goal is not to minimize what you are going through, but to help you live with more steadiness and care.

Maor Bernshtein, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
Living with chronic pain, chronic illness, or persistent symptoms can affect more than your body. It can change how you work, sleep, relate to others, and imagine your future. Other people may see you functioning without realizing what it costs you afterward, while you feel exhausted, isolated, or worn down by living in a body you can no longer fully trust. Therapy cannot erase the physical realities you face. It can give you a place to process what your health has changed, navigate uncertainty, strengthen your ability to cope, and build a life that feels more manageable and meaningful. Visit pathwaytoself.ca to book a free 20-minute consultation and ask any questions you have.

Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
I have many years of Oncology experience which has given me in-depth knowledge in a patient's journey through cancer. Cancer not only affects an individual but it affects their family and a wide circle of caregivers. Finding the right support in this challenging time can be beneficial for the individual's mental, emotional as well as physical health whether you are dealing with cancer or are a caregiver for someone going through cancer.

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.

Living with chronic pain or illness can be exhausting and lead to many other mental health issues. We may not be able to make pain go away, but we can adjust the way we perceive pain and the relationship we have with pain in a way that allows our mind to rest, even when our bodies are dealing with difficult experiences.
