Chronic Pain
Nightingale Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, MSW
At Nightingale Counselling, we understand that chronic pain is not simply a physical experience but one that ripples through every area of life, affecting identity, relationships, work, and emotional wellbeing in ways that are often underestimated and misunderstood. Grounded in modern pain science, our therapists work with clients to understand the profound connection between mind and body, helping to influence the way the brain modulates pain signals while also addressing the grief, fear, shame, and despair that so frequently accompany persistent pain. As one of the only counselling practices in Vancouver embedded within a multidisciplinary clinic, we offer direct access to physiotherapists, kinesiologists, and other allied health professionals, ensuring that clients receive the integrated, whole-person care that chronic pain truly requires.

Manupriya Mehra
Licensed Professional Counsellor, (RTC)(ACCT), C.HypTM -Trauma Specialist, B.A., M.A. Psychology ( India)
Living with chronic pain or long-term illness can affect emotional wellbeing, identity, relationships, and daily functioning. I support individuals in coping with the emotional impact of ongoing pain, stress, and uncertainty. Through a trauma-informed and mind–body approach, we focus on emotional regulation, stress reduction, pacing, and restoring a sense of control and resilience while living with physical limitations.

Chronic Pain
Dave Vass

Coming from a biopsychosocial perspective to symptoms, we can explore the possible roots to these chronic pain conditions by attending to the mind-body connection via somatic psychotherapy interventions.

Chronic Pain
Alex Henderson
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, B.A
I bring lived experience and both with chronic illness and pain as well as an intimate knowledge of how therapy can interface with these experiences. I recognise the grief and rage that can become key markers of our lives when we experience these conditions and I understand how anger and sadness can become braided and fused when we think about our bodies and our health. Nothing is too much for me to hear and everything is welcome when we discuss health.

Chronic Pain
Candice Seligman
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, DVATI, CCC
Chronic pain and illness often have layers that go beyond the physical body. I work somatically, in a trauma informed and nervous system aware way, to gently explore the root patterns that may be contributing to ongoing symptoms. Our work may include inner child healing, IFS & parts work, hypnotherapy, or energy-healing based practices, always guided by your system and paced with care. I offer a specialized body-based healing program for women who are ready to receive in-depth, holistic, support for their physical and health concerns. I would love to support you.

Chronic Pain
Cayla Townes, Memento Psychotherapy & Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC
Adjusting to new limitations can be difficult. A change in health, whether sudden or gradual, can be disorienting and frustrating. There can be so much grief tied up in changes to our health. No longer having the ability to do the activities we enjoy and having to change our plans for the future are just two of the many ways grief can impact our ability to adjust to chronic pain or illness. I work with people who are experiencing chronic pain, disability, or illness and the caregivers who support them to continue to live meaningful, connected lives.

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.

Living with chronic pain or illness can affect not only your body but also your emotions, relationships, and sense of identity.

Chronic Pain
Heron Payne Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor, RTC
As I understand from decades of living with chronic pain or illness, it can affect far more than your physical health. You may be coping with exhaustion, uncertainty, grief, frustration, changes in identity, or the strain of having to continually explain what you are experiencing to others. I offer a supportive space to explore the emotional impact of chronic health challenges without minimizing the reality of what your body is going through. Drawing on mindfulness, somatic awareness, and parts-oriented work, I help clients develop a more compassionate relationship with themselves, navigate difficult emotions, and find greater steadiness and choice while living with circumstances that may not be fully within their control.
