Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
For individuals with invisible chronic illnesses, hiding your pain all the time becomes exhausting. With a chronic health issue, you don’t get to choose when you’re in pain and when you’re not, and as such, I keep my cancellation policy flexible so that I can best support you. There is often a great deal of shame surrounding chronic illness, and significant stigma as well, both from the medical community and society at large. This can lead to depression and anxiety, both medical anxiety and social anxiety. I want to work with you to ensure that your chronic illness does not completely shape your mental health. As someone who suffers from a chronic pain condition, I am understanding and aware of the unique challenges that diagnoses such as fibromyalgia, Ehlers-Danlos, Dysautonomia, arthritis, and cancer have on an individual’s personal, romantic, and professional life. My goal is to help each patient understand and accept these diagnoses and work together to manage both the physical symptoms as well as the mental turmoil that can occur while trying to live life in an able-bodied world.

Elinor Nygren Szapiro
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA LPC, EMDR II, Brainspotting Certification, Hypnotherapy
I know what it's like to live with chronic illness, as I have been living with chronic illness myself for over 30 years. Of course, each of our experiences are unique, but living with physical challenges is so much more common than one might think. Ironically, though, in our culture, there can be a stigma or embarrassment to living with illness or pain, which can add to our difficulty. Fortunately, though, it's possible to learn to connect with a part of ourselves that is still "okay", that actually is "always okay", even though our physical bodies are struggling. Then, illness can be a doorway to connecting with our "innate wholeness", to a part of ourselves that is neither sick nor healthy, but rather something beyond them both. That is the pathway I've chosen to work with in myself and would be happy to share with other people dealing with chronic illness. I offer online and phone sessions, which can be particularly appealing for people who find it difficult to travel or prefer the comfort of their own space.
