Christopher Cannon
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, CAS, SEP
Living with ongoing pain or illness can wear down your mood, relationships, and sense of who you are. While I don’t treat the medical condition itself, I help clients work with the stress, fear, and grief that come with it. Somatic approaches can help you relate to your body with more curiosity and less bracing, which many people find makes daily life more manageable alongside their medical care.

Brandy Jaramillo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
When working with clients facing chronic illness and pain, I integrate Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Therapy to support both emotional and physical well-being. I help clients focus on their strengths and what’s working , reframe negative thought patterns that can intensify pain, and build motivation for self-care and adaptive coping. This approach fosters resilience, improves quality of life, and helps clients regain a sense of purpose and control despite ongoing health challenges

Empowered Wellbeing, Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery Support
Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
For clients with Chronic Health Conditions, often we encourage brain retraining via Gupta or other programs as an adjunct, and/or bio/neurofeedback including SSP, which we can offer remotely. Our practice focuses more on the deeper care for what might have been the conditions prior to the chronic health condition setting in, or work from a remote CranioSacral model. Clients might also seek functional and/or integrative approach to easing and managing symptoms and flares. We could apply an intersectional lens to work through ableism trauma as well, as an example.
