Chronic Pain
James Darby
Registered Psychotherapist, Postgraduate Diploma Core Process Psychotherapy, DCHyp, ABSCH, MBA
I employ mindfulness based approaches to help people cultivate inquisitiveness around their chronic pain or illness, encouraging them to move towards the difficulties they face rather than wrestle with them, or wish for the day that they were not there. These practices are resourcing and give clients capacity to see their condition more clearly, so that it becomes more workable, significantly reducing the anxiety that comes with such profound life challenges.

Chronic Pain
Liz Frings
Counsellor/Therapist, PG Diploma Person-Centred Psychotherapy. EMDR Accredited
Living with chronic illness means navigating not just physical symptoms, but also the emotional weight of uncertainty, loss, and adaptation. I understand that chronic illness can reshape your identity, relationships, and sense of the future in ways that others may not fully grasp. Whether you’re struggling with grief over the life you had planned, the isolation of invisible symptoms, the frustration of medical systems, or the challenge of advocating for yourself while managing pain and fatigue—you don’t have to face this alone.
In our work together, I provide a space where your full experience is welcome. We’ll honor both your resilience and your struggles, without pressure to “stay positive” or minimize what you’re going through. My approach integrates understanding of the mind-body connection, trauma-informed care, and practical strategies for living meaningfully within your limitations. Together, we can explore identity beyond illness, navigate complex emotions, improve communication with loved ones and providers, and develop sustainable coping tools that respect your energy and capacity.
You deserve support that meets you where you are—with compassion, validation, and genuine understanding of what it means to live in a body that doesn’t always cooperate.

Bournemouth is a seaside town on the Dorset coast with a large student population drawn to Bournemouth University and Arts University Bournemouth, and its mental health landscape reflects a mix of student wellbeing needs, seasonal resort pressures, and the challenges of a community with areas of significant economic deprivation behind its tourist-facing image. NHS mental health services are provided through Dorset Healthcare University NHS Foundation Trust, and a private therapy sector serves residents who prefer faster or more specialised care. The town's seasonal economy creates particular stressors for those in hospitality and tourism, and the contrast between high-season energy and winter quietude can amplify feelings of isolation and depression. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, depression, student wellbeing, relationship difficulties, and the challenges of building a stable life in a town whose character shifts dramatically across the year.
