When Pain or Illness Shapes Your Days
Living with ongoing pain or illness can quietly take over your life. You may look “fine” to others while inside you’re exhausted from trying to manage symptoms, appointments, and emotions that come with them. It’s common to feel frustrated with your body, anxious about flare-ups, or isolated when people don’t truly understand what you’re going through. You might notice that the harder you fight your pain, the more your stress and tension grow. You may grieve the life you used to have, or feel guilty for not being able to “push through” like you once did.
In our work together, we’ll use a structured, evidence-based approach called TEAM-CBT to help you reduce emotional suffering, even when physical symptoms remain. You’ll learn practical tools to:
Ease the anxiety, frustration, and guilt that often accompany chronic conditions
Calm the mind–body loop that keeps pain and stress feeding each other
Reconnect with your body as an ally rather than an enemy
Build confidence in managing daily life with greater balance and compassion
Our sessions combine cognitive and emotional tools with mindfulness-based practices. You’ll track your progress each week and practice brief daily exercises that retrain the brain’s stress response — supporting both emotional and physical resilience.
I BELIEVE:
Pain and illness don’t define you — they reveal your strength and capacity to adapt.
Emotional healing supports physical healing; they work together, not apart.
You deserve care that honors your whole experience, not just your symptoms.
Acceptance doesn’t mean giving up; it means finding peace even in uncertainty.
Humor, gentleness, and self-compassion are powerful forms of medicine.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychotherapist & Psychoanalyst
Chronic pain weaves so silently into one's emotional life and inner world. I attend closely to the relationship between unconscious emotional processes and the body when working with clients living with chronic pain. Together, we examine how longstanding stress, trauma, and unarticulated concerns may be expressed somatically. Over time, this analytic process can support greater psychological integration and a more stable, workable relationship with the body, rather than focusing solely on short-term symptom relief.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Margaret Graham
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Living with chronic pain or illness means your body has become unreliable, unpredictable, and sometimes feels like it's working against you. Whether you're dealing with IBS, fibromyalgia, migraines, or another condition that doctors struggle to fully explain or treat, the psychological toll is real – the frustration of canceled plans, the isolation of being misunderstood, the grief of losing the life you had, and the fear of what comes next. I work with clients navigating the intersection of physical symptoms and emotional wellbeing. We use clinical hypnosis as one tool to help calm your nervous system and address the gut-brain connection (particularly helpful for IBS), alongside talk therapy to process the anger, grief, and anxiety that come with chronic conditions. We'll also work on pacing yourself, advocating for your needs without guilt, and finding ways to live fully even when your body sets limits you didn't choose.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Corina Bair
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
As someone who struggles with chronic pain myself, I have found strength in providing an understanding and accepting counseling space for others with chronic pain or illness, as so many of us are overlooked or misunderstood by mental health and medical providers. I'm an open-minded and accepting therapist with years of experience working with teens, young and middle-aged adults - especially women - on feeling good about who we are and the bodies we live in, as well as accepting our limitations and learning how to be our best selves within them. Assisting my clients with building insight and understanding into your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors is an essential part of my therapy practice, and I provide evidence-based practice tools that you can use outside of therapy as well. ~~~ Just to make it clear: BLM. Protect the dolls. FDT. Free Palestine & Sudan. F the patriarchy/capitalism. Sex + Body Positive. ~~~
I am passionate about providing a safe, compassionate, and welcoming space for people of all backgrounds, bodies, and identities. Click that contact button and we can schedule a free consultation call today!
