Chronic Pain
Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
Living with chronic illness or chronic pain can feel all-consuming and exhausting, affecting your physical health, emotional well-being, mental health, and day-to-day functioning. It often involves significant grief—particularly if diagnosis comes later in life—as you adjust to changes in your body, abilities, identity, and the way you move through the world.
I have a personal understanding of this experience, as I was diagnosed with Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome in my late 20s. Navigating chronic pain and nervous system dysregulation has been an ongoing process of learning, adaptation, and finding new ways to support my body and wellbeing.
In our work together, we focus on reconnecting with self, building resilience, and developing sustainable strategies for daily life. This includes cultivating self-compassion, strengthening nervous system regulation, and identifying supportive resources and pacing that honour your capacity.
I draw from Adlerian Therapy, IFS, ACT, EMDR and somatic therapy to support both emotional processing and practical coping. Together, we work toward creating a more balanced and manageable way of living with chronic illness or pain.
I offer both in-person and virtual counselling sessions. You’re welcome to reach out or visit my website to book a free 20-minute phone consultation to learn more about my approach.

Chronic Pain
Amelia Traer
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), BA, PsiChi
When your body becomes unpredictable, life can start to feel like a constant exercise in adapting, explaining, and pushing through. Chronic pain and illness can affect far more than your physical health, impacting your identity, relationships, work, and sense of what the future will look like. Therapy can offer a space to process the grief, frustration, uncertainty, and emotional exhaustion that can come with living in a body that doesn’t always cooperate. Amelia offers compassionate, validating support to help you navigate life with chronic pain or illness without minimizing what you’re going through or expecting you to simply “stay positive.”
