Chronic Pain or Illness
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!

Chronic Pain or Illness
Bonnie Rae
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I have personal experience with chronic pain, illness and autoimmune diseases, which helps my clients feel seen and understood. I've witnessed how pain and symptoms can flair up during times of stress or when emotions aren't being fully felt. One of the gifts of my work is witnessing chronic pain move out of the body when trauma and suppressed emotions are released. I've helped numerous people navigate life altering diagnoses, cancer, IBS, Crohn's Disease, Lupus, Alopecia, Hashimotos Disease, and more.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Timothy Weymann
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (L.C.S.W.)
Living with chronic illness or chronic pain can affect every part of life—your body, mood, identity, relationships, and sense of control. I specialize in helping clients adjust to these ongoing challenges using evidence-based approaches that support both emotional resilience and practical coping. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we work to identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns that can intensify suffering, while building skills to manage stress, pacing, and daily functioning. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps create space for difficult physical sensations and emotions, while reconnecting you with your values and what gives your life meaning—even in the presence of pain. I also incorporate EMDR to process medical trauma, diagnostic experiences, or other distressing events that may be compounding your adjustment. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in research. Together, we focus on reducing suffering, strengthening resilience, and helping you build a life that feels meaningful and empowered—no matter what your body is facing.
