Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are living with chronic pain or illness, you may feel exhausted in ways that are hard to explain. The ongoing physical discomfort, medical appointments, and uncertainty can impact your mood, relationships, identity, and sense of control. You may grieve the version of life you once had as you adapt to new limitations.
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.

Melissa Huang
Registered Psychotherapist, (Qualifying), MA
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.

Kate Hollowell Sheldon
Psychologist, MC, R.Psych.
I used to work at a chronic pain clinic early in my career. Throughout the years, I have also worked with clients who are diagnosed with terminal health conditions or they experienced life changing difficulties with surgery or injury. Sometimes I utilize EMDR for pain management and I can teach the client how to use tapping to alleviate some of their pain flareups or give them a break from the chronic pain they are experiencing. This topic also involves some grief and loss work with a client around their physical abilities and their identity. In the case of a client who has a terminal illness, we work on how they want to live their life with meaning and purpose.

Teo Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, CCC, RPq
Chronic pain and illness can often be intertwined with past trauma, as our bodies can "keep the score" of emotional and physical stress. I specialize in helping clients manage chronic pain and illness by exploring how unresolved trauma may contribute to their physical symptoms. Through Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), I guide clients in processing traumatic memories, reducing their emotional impact, and helping the body release stored tension. Alongside EMDR, I use mindfulness and cognitive behavioral techniques to empower clients to regain control over their health and well-being. Together, we’ll work on alleviating the emotional burden of chronic pain, promoting healing, and enhancing quality of life.

I offer a slow, gentle online space in Vancouver to process the complex emotional grief, nervous system exhaustion, and isolation that physical suffering brings. Together, we will use somatic tracking to listen to your body's messages with kindness, moving toward a collaborative and compassionate relationship with your physical self.

Laura Jean Northey
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, BA
In addition to the added stress that chronic pain and illness can add our lives, they can also bring up existential questions and spiritual dilemmas. When these go unaddressed, they can lead to anxiety and depression. Together we can look honestly at the emotional reality that you experience as a result of your chronic pain or illness, bring light to your feelings, and allow space for you to express yourself openly.

Candice Seligman
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, DVATI, CCC
Chronic pain and illness often have layers that go beyond the physical body. I work somatically, in a trauma informed and nervous system aware way, to gently explore the root patterns that may be contributing to ongoing symptoms. Our work may include inner child healing, IFS & parts work, hypnotherapy, or energy-healing based practices, always guided by your system and paced with care. I offer a specialized body-based healing program for women who are ready to receive in-depth, holistic, support for their physical and health concerns. I would love to support you.

Ekta Abhay Lather
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Chronic pain is a challenging and often overwhelming condition that can deeply affect your life. It is characterized by persistent discomfort lasting longer than three months, even after injuries or underlying issues have healed. This pain can arise from various conditions, such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, or neuropathy, and it can significantly diminish your quality of life.
If you are living with chronic pain, you might find yourself facing physical limitations, emotional distress, and difficulties with daily activities. This can create a frustrating cycle that often leads to feelings of isolation.
It's important to know that you are not alone in this struggle. Managing chronic pain frequently requires a holistic approach, which may include medical treatments, physical therapy, lifestyle changes, and emotional support. Finding coping strategies, like mindfulness practices and stress management techniques, can be vital in helping you regain a sense of control and improve your overall well-being. Remember, taking small steps toward management can make a big difference in your journey.

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.

Heal(ing) Trauma Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), HBA, MPsy
From a trauma-informed perspective, chronic-pain and illness are both symptomatic of unresolved trauma, both physical and mental. The work we can do will include helping you better understand your health and how your mind and body impact each other. It can include helping you learn how to better cope with your condition, while also doing the processing work to resolve your trauma. It can also include helping you develop stronger self advocacy to better navigate through the health care systems.

Saskatoon is Saskatchewan's largest city and an emerging hub for agriculture technology, mining, and biotechnology — sectors that shape an occupational therapy landscape distinct from more diversified Canadian metros. The city has a significant Indigenous population, with First Nations and Métis residents comprising a larger proportion of urban residents than in most Canadian cities outside Winnipeg, and therapists offering trauma-informed, culturally grounded care — including work on intergenerational trauma from residential schools — are an especially important part of the local mental health landscape. Saskatchewan Health Authority provides public mental health services, while the University of Saskatchewan's psychology programs supply clinical training to the local community. Saskatoon's cold winters and geographic isolation contribute to seasonal mood challenges that therapists here address as a recurring clinical priority.
