Chronic Pain or Illness
Daniel Snow
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I have more than a decade of experience helping people, and those they love, navigate some of the most difficult times in life. This includes dealing with chronic illness, chronic pain, and progressive disease. I can help navigate the complexities of the medical system, help people advocate for themselves better, manage pain and symptoms, and help clarify options. This does not replace medical care in any way, but can significantly help.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Reginald K. Riggins
Psychologist, PhD
Chronic pain is a condition that affects multiple aspects of a person's life and can exacerbate both depression and anxiety symptoms. I use cognitive-behavioral therapy for chronic pain to improve one's quality of life by accepting the reality of having pain in your life and learning how to move forward it. In addition, a client will learn several relaxation and cognitive skills to reduce and manage the pain as best as possible in conjunction with your current medical treatment plan.

Michele Sitorus (Inner Peace Psychological Care)
Psychologist, Psy.D.
A multidisciplinary approach is often used to address both the physical and psychological aspects of the condition. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) may be employed to help individuals manage pain-related distress, challenge unhelpful thoughts and beliefs about their condition, and develop effective coping strategies. Mindfulness-based interventions, such as mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) or acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), can also be beneficial in promoting acceptance of pain and fostering greater psychological flexibility. Additionally, therapy may involve education about pain management techniques, relaxation training, and lifestyle modifications to improve overall quality of life despite the presence of chronic pain or illness.

Greta Cowles Consulting
Life Coach, LMFT, SEP, PIT, Trauma Stress Studies
Somatic therapies resolve chronic pain and illness through neural pathway reorganization. This is not exposure therapy, but rather a gentle way to resolve and process real physical pain.
