Chronic Pain or Illness
Katherine Coder
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, PhD, LPC, LMHC
When there is trauma, we are more likely to have chronic health issues as our HPA Axis is dysregulated. This means our nervous systems are prone to overreacting to our environment and telling our bodies that we are under threat (even when we are not). This over-firing of the nervous system sets the stage for chronic inflammation, adrenal fatigue and burnout, autoimmune conditions as it means we are stressed a lot of the time. Helping to unwind the trauma helps heal the HPA Axis dysregulation, which supports physical healing.

Living with chronic pain or illness can affect every part of life, including physical health, emotional well-being, relationships, and daily functioning. I work with adults who are managing ongoing medical conditions to reduce stress, improve coping, and reconnect with meaning and purpose. My approach combines evidence-based therapy, psychoeducation, and mindfulness-informed strategies to support both acceptance and resilience. Whether you have recently been diagnosed or have been managing symptoms for years, I offer a space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported. I welcome you to reach out for a free consultation.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Rebecca Castle-Waller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
People mean well, but they just don't get it. From the folks who "helpfully" suggest you try yoga and tea tree oil to the folks who absolutely refuse to acknowledge the elephant in the room, you find yourself working twice as hard, first to manage your pain and condition, and second to make sure you aren't bothering the people around you. This goes double if you have an invisible disability.
I get it. Let's give you a space where you can unmask. A space where you can be you without having to worry about bothering people, complaining too much, being too graphic. I've heard it all. Let's build a space together where we can look at some of the underlying psychology to give you tools to help build the life you want to be living.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Jamie Andersen, M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Woodland Counseling
Chronic pain can rob you of an enjoyable quality of life. Chronic pain can lead to symptoms of depression and helplessness. There is a body-mind connection. Science has begun to recognize that there is a connection between our physical and mental health. Emotional, physical, spiritual and behavioral factors can affect your health. Emotions and thought patterns contribute to imbalances in the body and therapies like mindfulness, meditation, and CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization) can be used to rebalance and promote physical and mental health. The perception of pain is in your brain so you can affect your pain level by challenging the thoughts and behaviors that support it.

Centerpoint Healing; Raphaelle Cuenod
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Chronic pain can be physically exhausting and emotionally isolating. Over time, it can wear you down, especially when others don’t understand these sometimes unseen illnesses. Many people also carry grief for who they used to be, alongside frustration, fear, or hopelessness. We offer supportive, body-centered care to help reduce suffering, improve nervous system regulation, and cultivate resilience, supporting both physical and emotional healing while restoring a sense of agency and quality of life.
