Chronic pain can feel all-encompassing, but as a psychoanalyst, I explore the mind-body connection. We'll delve into unconscious worries, past traumas, or stress that might be contributing to your pain. By uncovering these hidden emotional factors, you can gain a deeper understanding of how your mind and body interact, leading to improved coping mechanisms and a path towards a more fulfilling life.

Stephen B. Lewis Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Unfortunately, many ailments are accompanied by pain. While treatment for the underlying issue is under way the pain itself can serve little purpose other than to be an uncomfortable and distracting reminder. Prescription drugs and other substances may be used to dull or mask physical pain, but they are often accompanied by unwanted or dangerous side-effects, and may eventually lose their effectiveness.
Hypnosis offers a drug and side-effect free alternative to pain management. Since pain is a signal interpreted by the the mind, it is possible to re-frame those signals by training the mind's response to them. Using the power of your own imagination to dull, direct, and distract, I'll help you learn to control the sensation and intensity of pain and find relief.
