Chronic Pain or Illness
Yanna Martinek
Counsellor/Therapist, R.C.C.
I bring both lived and professional experience working with chronic illness and pain, and predominantly use Pain Reprocessing Therapy to support meaningful change. This approach focuses on retraining the brain’s response to symptoms, reducing fear, and restoring a sense of safety in the body. The aim is not to invalidate your experience, but to open new pathways for relief. Chronic illness can be deeply isolating and you don’t have to navigate it alone.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Jaswir Dhillon
Registered Psychotherapist, MA
Living with chronic pain or illness can take a toll not just on your body, but also on your mental and emotional well-being. It can feel isolating, exhausting, and overwhelming. Therapy offers a space to process your experience, explore your identity beyond your diagnosis, and develop tools to manage stress, grief, and uncertainty. I understand how isolating living with chronic pain can be and the devastating impact it can have on your relationship with yourself and your body. You are not alone, it would be my honour to walk alongside you on your journey.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Darren Williamson
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC (#23397)
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. It can impact your sleep, your diet, and can contribute to a variety of psychological symptoms such as depression, phobia and anxiety.
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.
