Robynne OByrne
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Chronic pain and Chronic Illness are among the most emotionally painful experiences with which my clients struggle. Few
issues are as all encompassing and depleting as dealing with a chronic illness or pain. However, neither has to rule your life. Through a combination of somatic work, mindfulness training, cognitive behavioral therapy, depth hypnosis and practical pain management strategies, I help my clients create a different and healthier relationship with their illness or pain.

Roanne de Guia-Samuels
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CChT
Chronic pain & illness can be so be so isolating. You do all the things-Show up for others but can’t quite figure out why your body can’t show up for you. Instead, it feels like a cage you want to break free from but just don’t know how. In our work together, we blend psychotherapy & nervous system informed bodywork so you can begin to be yourself again.

Elaine Skoulas
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
Living with chronic pain or illness can be exhausting, especially when symptoms are invisible, misunderstood, or difficult to explain. Many people feel caught between medical answers that do not fully help and a body that continues to signal distress. I specialize in working with chronic pain and mind-body symptoms using Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) and nervous system-based approaches. Our work together explores how stress, trauma, and protective patterns in the nervous system can influence physical symptoms while honoring the real complexity of living with pain or illness.

Rose Snyder, EdM, PsyD, LLC
Psychologist, PsyD
Living with chronic pain or illness can affect many aspects of life, from energy and relationships to identity, daily routines, and future plans. As a longtime mindfulness practitioner and trained mindfulness teacher, I draw on mindfulness-based approaches, including Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), for which I trained through the pain clinic at UMass. My own experience living with long COVID also informs my understanding of the adjustments and uncertainties that chronic illness can bring.
In therapy, I help clients explore the emotional impact of ongoing health conditions and find practical ways to navigate life within their current capacities. Depending on individual needs, this may include mindfulness, nervous-system-informed approaches informed by Polyvagal Theory, pacing activities and energy, and making room for grief and frustration while finding meaningful ways to move forward.
