Chronic Pain
Talia Chanoff
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I offer therapy for individuals living with chronic illness and chronic pain in a way that honors the wisdom of your body and the realities of ongoing symptoms. I understand that there is a deeply complex relationship between ongoing pain and our emotional worlds. Our work creates space to explore the emotional, relational, and nervous system impacts of living in a body that may feel unpredictable or demanding, and connecting with your body's needs, without pressure to push through or "fix." Some of our work might focus on building self-compassion, exploring grief and sadness related to chronic illness, and cultivating sustainable ways of caring for yourself rooted in dignity, agency, and meaning, even in the presence of pain and discomfort.

Chronic Pain
Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychoanalyst, Psychotherapist
Chronic pain can integrate itself so silently, and so painfully, into one's emotional world. I attend closely to the relationship between unconscious emotional processes and the body when working with clients living with chronic pain. Together we can examine how longstanding stress and unarticulated concerns may be expressed through your body; we can put words to the pain that has no home in order to release it.

Chronic Pain
Jean-Marie Bottequin
Life Coach, WAPP
"Mindfulness" is now successfully used as behavioral therapy.
In psychotherapy, "mindfulness" is now successfully used as behavioral therapy. Mindfulness means to direct one's attention deliberately and not judgmental to the conscious experience of the moment. The patient learns to pay attention to the body functions such as breathing in the course of psychotherapy and deals with a positive purpose in life. In this way he perceives the "negative" things or the illness as no longer so impairing and directs his thoughts towards health. As examples one can mention the syndrome of restless legs: Patients experienced the painful "leg fidgeting" after performing the mindfulness exercises as no longer so impairing. The integration of "mindfulness" is particularly helpful in the treatment of depression.
Apart from "mindfulness", probably more elements of psychotherapy can be used to focus on health and physical recovery.
A polarization between academic medicine and mental Healing is not useful. Rather, a simultaneous application of common medicine and spiritual healing to improve the state of health and the course of patients' disease. I would therefore like to call for this, to cooperate even more closely between the disciplines in the medical and complementary medicine sector.
