Living with chronic pain or illness affects more than your body — it can wear on your mood, relationships, and sense of self. Our therapists help you navigate the emotional side of a health journey that doesn't always have a clear finish line, offering coping strategies and a steady, compassionate space to process the frustration, grief, and uncertainty that often come along with it.

Kayzim Suárez-Reyes
Psychologist, PhD
I have specialized expertise in the psychological components of chronic pain, recognizing that persistent pain involves complex interactions between the body and mind. I work with clients to move beyond the biomedical model by employing evidence-based strategies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for Chronic Pain and acceptance-based approaches. My focus is on reducing pain-related distress, managing the associated symptoms like insomnia and depression, and decreasing the fear-avoidance cycle. By understanding the brain's role in pain perception, I help clients build resilience, increase their daily functioning, and improve their overall quality of life, even while living with pain. I also live with chronic pain (nerve pain) and know how challenging it is to manage the psychological aspects of it!

Heidi Hartston
Psychologist, PhD
Life can change dramatically and suddenly from an injury or chronic illness. Your pain might be invisible to others who don't understand what you're going through or why your participation in activities has changed. Some days it takes heroic courage and determination just to do ordinary things. Working with an experienced therapist can be a game changer in finding ways to reclaim as much or your life as possible. Some suffering and loss is unavoidable. But there are strategies that minimize pain and reduce the secondary consequences that shrink your life. I combine insightful, caring depth work with evidence based techniques that are most effective in freeing you from unnecessary suffering and helping you get back to the happy, interactive activities that are meaningful to you.
