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.
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!

Chronic Pain or Illness
Olivia Belknap
Pre-Licensed Professional, Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, MS
Chronic illness is often accompanied by, grief, depression, anxiety, isolation, and even anger and rage. Chronic illness also comes with loss, the loss of our health, relationships careers, hobbies, independence and more. The people in your life may not understand what you're going through, or may expect you to push yourself past your limits. We can work together to process grief around the many losses that come with chronic illness, set boundaries with loved ones, find self compassion, learn to honor your needs, and create strategies that work for you.
As someone living with a chronic illness, I have first hand experience with many chronic illness struggles and I use my experience to inform my work.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I wonder if you notice any difference in your body right now, at this very moment. Can you sit with it a second longer? Perhaps, there is a small part of your body that is not feeling as strained, knotted, tingly, throbbing, or numb as it was before you made this decision to read therapist's profiles?
Through an attachment somatic therapy approach, we'll pendulate from identifying and enjoying these small to large wonderful exhales of relief from pain with intentional befriending and curiosity towards pain in a welcoming of all parts of you to be recognized, heard, and validated in a journey towards the freedom to live an engaged life of presence with yourself, your dreams, your responsibilities, and your relationships.
