Chronic Pain or Illness
Dr. Ann Becker-Schutte; Healthy Balanced Life Psychology, LLC
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Our physical and emotional health are intimately connected. When you are living a body that is unreliable or in pain, that can create relationship stress, depression and anxiety. Throughout my career, I have focused on the unique challenges faced by patients or caregivers who are coping with serious illness.

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.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Dr. Adam Shafer
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Managing chronic pain and illness exhausts many of the social and personal resources we have just to get through the day. Feelings of isolation and being alone in this struggle are insidious and can take away from our ability to remain connected to others and within ourselves. Whether it is not wanting to burden others with our struggle or feelings of hopelessness, people need to know (and feel) that they are valuable enough to continue to be cared for while also provided with space through encouragement that honors our autonomy.
