Chronic Pain or Illness
Tatiana Balashova (Life in Glow Wellness)
Counsellor/Therapist
Life with and without pain is very big difference, almost every person knows that.
It is quite common when chronic illnesses and pain have psychosomatic causes at least in part of their nature. I recommend you to watch 2 videos about Emotion-Image Therapy on my wellness vlog. Often some kind of trapped emotion or feeling lies at the root of pain or disfunction. When things are manifesting into physical level it is usually after emotional, mental and energetic, more less tangible levels which can be quite hard to diagnose. There are millions of people who go to doctors only to hear “it will be even worse” or “let’s give it some time”. Whereas looking deeper at the root of the problem in time and addressing the emotional psychosomatic aspect of the illness can prevent drastic changes in the body which in some cases can be irreversible.
In any case I believe if you can handle pain you can handle a few sessions looking at what is causing it at different levels.
With chronic pain and illnesses and psychosomatic requests I usually use emotion-image therapy, MACards counseling or art therapy. At times I combine those methods. I’d recommend to book a package of 3-5 sessions at minimum together, to schedule sessions once a week.
Sessions are available on the first come first serve basis with a preference to returning clients and have to be booked in advance (pre-paid in advance).
Rates for sessions vary from USD $75 to $125 depending on the package and length of the session.
I offer a sliding scale for the 1st session and when you take a package.
As a special promo, discovery consultation in March 2023 is free of charge, it lasts 20-30 minutes and can be followed up by the 1st consultation on the same day.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Theodosia Daflos
Counsellor/Therapist, MA
Chronic pain and chronic illnesses can be devastating to experience, particularly if there is no treatment for them. From a psychological perspective, we know and acknowledge that you have a biological cause of your pain and illness that we can't change through therapy. What we CAN help with is managing your pain and illness. This can include identifying and working through barriers to taking your medications or making medical appointments to manage your illness, identifying patterns and triggers that make your symptoms worse, and addressing the stress, anxiety, and depression your illness and pain can cause.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Josiane Mapplebeck
Counsellor/Therapist, PhD, MEd, RCT-C, CCC
I believe that nurturing the mind-body-soul connection can help promote physical, mental, and emotional wellness in those navigating chronic pain and other health conditions. My lived experience also supports this belief – fostering my own connection has dramatically improved my holistic wellness and relationship with my physical health.
Life is a story with many chapters. Before I became a therapist, I was a neuroscientist and medical researcher, a career which fostered a deep understanding of the brain and nervous system. Inspired by my personal journey with chronic illness, I focused my work on the neuroscience and management of chronic pain, exploring how the body, mind, and brain influences physical health.
My approach to therapy integrates these unique insights along with knowledge from different therapeutic modalities, particularly mindfulness-based approaches, alongside inspiration from my experiences as a yoga instructor.
I will support you in your unique journey with chronic pain or other health conditions, always respecting that you are the expert in your story.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Sarah Bickle
Registered Psychotherapist, MPsy., R.P.
Chronic pain or illness can impact every aspect of your life. Having lived with chronic illness myself and supported others through their journey, I understand the daily challenges of managing physical pain while maintaining emotional and mental well-being. My approach integrates both traditional therapy and somatic techniques, helping you cope with the emotional impact of chronic illness. Together, we can work on strategies that ease both physical discomfort and the mental burdens that often accompany chronic conditions.

Chronic Pain or Illness
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 or Illness
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.
