Living with chronic pain or illness can be exhausting, both physically and emotionally. It often impacts your mood, energy, and ability to keep up with everyday life. In therapy we will create space to process what you are going through while also building tools to manage stress, adjust to limitations, and find a sense of balance. The goal is to help you feel more supported and better able to cope with the ongoing challenges you face.

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.

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.

Viktoria Walda Byczkiewicz, Ph.D.
Pre-Licensed Professional, PhD
Chronic pain or illness leaves us feeling drained and devoid of energy. Being sick and tired works on the mind and body like a downward spiral from which it feels like there is no escape. You can learn to co-exist with pain and illness; to keep on living life even with compromises, and to manage the pain psychologically, with ease. It is possible to begin enjoying activities that you used to, again. It is possible to keep on going!

Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Living with chronic illness, chronic pain, disability, EDS, dysautonomia, Long COVID, autoimmune conditions, and other complex health challenges often requires carrying far more than symptoms alone. It can involve grief, uncertainty, medical trauma, identity shifts, fluctuating capacity, inaccessible systems, financial strain, changing relationships, and the ongoing labor of adapting to a body whose needs may change from one day to the next.
My work recognizes that living with chronic illness is not simply a medical experience. It is also a nervous system experience, an emotional experience, a relational experience, and often a deeply existential one. Together, we create space for the realities of grief, relief, adaptation, advocacy, relationship, resilience, choice, and survival while exploring ways to reconnect with your body that are rooted in compassion rather than conflict and pushing through.
Drawing from both clinical expertise and lived experience navigating complex chronic health conditions, I understand how easy it can be to internalize narratives that equate worth with productivity, independence, consistency, or achievement. Our work centers honoring your body's wisdom, challenging internalized narratives, cultivating self-trust, and building a life that supports your wellbeing rather than requiring you to constantly override your needs.
