Chronic Pain
Clayre Sessoms
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC, ATR-BC
Living with chronic pain or illness fundamentally changes your relationship with your environment, a reality compounded by a medical system that frequently dismisses marginalised or complex identities. 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.

Chronic Pain
Vanessa Fingland
Counsellor/Therapist, CCPCPR.cand, RPC-C
Living with chronic pain can affect every aspect of your life, impacting your mood, relationships, work, and overall sense of well being. Together, we'll explore the emotional and psychological impact of living with persistent pain while developing practical coping strategies to help reduce stress, improve resilience, and enhance your quality of life. Often there is a lot of grief and loss in the pain. My goal is to help you feel supported, regain a sense of control, and live more fully alongside the challenges of chronic pain.

Chronic Pain
Linda Szeto
Therapist, RCC, CCC
My approach draws on trauma processing and body-based therapies, including EMDR and Brainspotting, to work with the intersection of chronic pain and trauma. I have additional training in using EMDR to address pain, and I bring an understanding of chronic illness and pain to this work, including through my own lived experience with both. Therapy is collaborative and paced with sensitivity to the physical and emotional realities of living with chronic pain and health conditions. Depending on your needs, sessions may focus on distressing experiences, pain-related triggers, nervous system responses, and the ways pain and trauma can compound one another.

Chronic Pain
Kimberly Davidson | Katalyst Integrated Trauma Treatment
Counsellor/Therapist, RCS, MTC, RTC, SEP, CCTP, CCISM, CFRC, CATP, NARM
Quite often chronic pain and illness are a result of developmental or shock trauma. Some times it is the reverse. Knowing the difference and how they work, makes a difference in healing process.

Chronic Pain
Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
Living with chronic pain or illness doesn't just hurt your body—it isolates you, shrinks your world, and makes you feel invisible to those who can't understand. I see you, and I know how the physical suffering entangles with grief, frustration, identity loss, and fear. Together, we'll work toward emotional freedom even when physical limitations remain. You'll learn how others have found meaning and peace despite ongoing pain, discover tools for nervous system regulation that reduce suffering's grip, and reclaim agency over your inner life. Healing isn't about fixing what can't be fixed—it's about living fully despite it. You're not alone anymore.
