Pleasant Hill, California therapist: Julie Levin, marriage and family therapist
Chronic Pain or Illness

Julie Levin

Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Acute pain makes so much sense. Pain tells us to be cautious around an injury or illness until we heal. Chronic pain is entirely different. What we know now is that the brain doesn't catch up to the fact that the body has actually done the work of healing. So it continues sending these warning signals that hurt because it thinks we're still in the danger zone. Pain Reprocessing Therapy retrains your brain so that it stops sending pain signals. I love this modality because it healed my own back pain in 4 sessions, after decades of recurring sciatica. Now, it's my honor and pleasure to share this gift with my clients.

Chronic pain and Chronic Illness are among the most emotionally painful experiences with which my clients struggle.

San Francisco, California therapist: Talia Chanoff, marriage and family therapist
Chronic Pain or Illness

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.

San Francisco, California therapist: Chris Guthrey, psychologist
Chronic Pain or Illness

Chris Guthrey

Psychologist, PsyD
I use several approaches to work with chronic pain and illness. ACT encourages individuals to accept pain rather than struggle against it, promoting engagement in meaningful activities despite discomfort. Mindfulness cultivates present-moment awareness, helping individuals become less reactive to pain sensations. Psychodynamic therapy explores unconscious patterns of how you may react to the perception of your condition in order to rewire those responses.
