Somatic Healing Arts, Psychotherapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (qualifying), MA-ExAT
Chronic pain and illness affect not just the body, but the mind and emotions as well. They can show up as tension, fatigue, stress, or a sense of being disconnected from one’s body. Approaches like art therapy and sensorimotor therapy gently engage both body and mind, helping release stored tension, improve bodily awareness, manage emotional stress, and foster a greater sense of resilience, agency, and well-being despite ongoing health challenges.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are living with chronic pain or illness, you may feel exhausted in ways that are hard to explain. The ongoing physical discomfort, medical appointments, and uncertainty can impact your mood, relationships, identity, and sense of control. You may grieve the version of life you once had as you adapt to new limitations.
At Selah Counselling, we recognize that chronic pain and illness affect both body and mind. We provide a compassionate space where you can process frustration, grief, fear, and fatigue without feeling dismissed. Our work includes support for the nervous system, coping strategies for flare-ups, pacing skills, and help rebuilding a sense of agency in your current reality. The goal is not to deny the hardship, but to strengthen resilience, increase emotional steadiness, and help you live with greater clarity and hope even within ongoing physical challenges.

Kim Alscher
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RCC
I am certified in Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) and have completed extensive training in other evidence-based mind-body approaches to overcoming chronic pain, fatigue and other neuroplastic symptoms. I am also a person with lived experience of chronic pain and ME/CFS, who has seen profound improvements through the use of Pain Reprocessing Therapy and other mindfulness-based techniques. Because of this, I have strong foundation of knowledge and tools to support clients navigating similar challenges.

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.
