People often think of chronic pain as a physical problem. But living with chronic pain can take a heavy psychological toll. It can create feelings of anger, hopelessness, shame and isolation.

Together we will make a pain management plan that involves identifying the thoughts and emotions contributing to your pain. Through counselling, we can find a way for you to handle your pain more effectively, and improve your self-esteem and overall quality of life.
