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
Edie Ye
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Our minds and bodies learn to function in certain ways that help us survive certain periods, and often, hold onto the same patterns that no longer serve us. Experiencing chronic, unresolvable symptoms such as gut issues, sleep disturbances, fatigue, emotional numbness, and/or pain? I incorporate the nervous system and somatic work to explore how symptoms, such as chronic pain, are trying to signal to you, and ways we learn to build safety in the body and allow for softening, at a pace that feels comfortable to you.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Margaret Graham
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCPC, LPCC
When medical interventions have reached their limits, clinical hypnosis offers new possibilities for pain management and improved quality of life. My work in this area is supported by robust clinical evidence showing significant reductions in pain intensity through hypnotherapeutic techniques. I help clients develop personalized pain management protocols that address the psychological dimensions of chronic pain. Through targeted hypnotic suggestion and mind-body techniques, clients often experience meaningful relief while developing greater agency in their relationship with pain. Our work focuses not just on symptom reduction but on reclaiming aspects of life that pain may have diminished.
