Chronic Pain
Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Chronic pain or illness is a multifaceted issue. There is, of course, the pain or illness but there is also the fear of feeling more pain or ill, and the constant belief that they "should" be more productive. Additionally, most of my client's struggle with accepting that they are not making this up, they are not being lazy, they are not 'conveniently" hurting or ill when something needs to be done. I can help you desensitize and reframe all of these negative beliefs and help you release the fear of more pain which is actually causing more pain. Lastly, with EMDR in many cases I can reduce or eliminate chronic pain symptoms.

Chronic Pain
Clare Campbell
Psychologist, Ph.D.
As a clinical psychologist with over a decade of experience, I provide intensive psychotherapy for individuals navigating the emotional toll of chronic pain or illness. I offer telehealth sessions to clients across the United States, as well as in-person appointments in Darien, Connecticut. My approach is highly individualized, grounded in the belief that meaningful change arises through a deeper understanding of one’s emotional life in the present moment. Together, we will work to uncover and shift long-standing patterns that may be interfering with your well-being, relationships, or sense of self. I aim to bring both compassion and challenge to our work—meeting you with respect, curiosity, and acceptance, while also encouraging growth toward a more authentic and connected version of yourself.

Chronic Pain
Dyani Saxby
Psychologist, Ph.D., ABPP, DBSM
There is a difference between living with chronic pain and suffering with it. Suffering includes depression, unresolved grief, anxiety, isolation, and withdrawal. Chronic pain can cause these feelings because we grieve what we used to be able to do and feel that pain robs us of living a full life. Sometimes we feel like we lose ourselves entirely. When we are in a depressed or anxious mood state for a long period of time, we actually end up experiencing worse pain (and often worse sleep), which results in a vicious cycle that can feel impossible to break. The good news is that I have helped hundreds of patients improve how they respond to their pain and also lower their overall pain levels. They began to accept what they cannot control and also learn how to have more control over their pain levels through techniques such as physical pacing, relaxation, and clinical hypnosis. With board certifications in clinical health psychology, behavioral sleep medicine, and extensive training in clinical hypnosis, I can teach you skills to break the cycle of chronic pain and suffering.
