Chronic Pain or Illness
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.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Rakan Himadeh
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, ISP Candidate
Chronic pain often reflects a nervous system stuck in activation or survival responses (fight/flight/freeze). SE helps regulate these states, release held tension, and reduce the body’s stress load, which can ease pain and improve overall functioning.

Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
For clients with Chronic Health Conditions, often we encourage brain retraining via Gupta or other programs as an adjunct, and/or bio/neurofeedback including SSP, which we can offer remotely. Our practice focuses more on the deeper care for what might have been the conditions prior to the chronic health condition setting in, or work from a remote CranioSacral model. Clients might also seek functional and/or integrative approach to easing and managing symptoms and flares. We could apply an intersectional lens to work through ableism trauma as well, as an example.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Ulrike Nau-Debor
Psychologist, CPsychol, AFBPsS, HCPC registered
At my practice, I specialise in supporting clients with autoimmune diseases, addressing the unique psychological challenges they face.
Experiencing the early symptoms of an autoimmune disorder can be distressing, especially when diagnosis takes time and initial symptoms are often dismissed by medical professionals. This journey can leave individuals feeling unheard and invalidated, adding to their emotional burden. Once diagnosed, clients often grapple with the grief and trauma associated with their condition.
Living with an autoimmune disorder means managing not only the physical symptoms but also the psychological impact. Chronic pain and illness can take a significant toll on mental health, making it essential to find effective coping strategies. Our work together focuses on addressing this trauma, both from the diagnosis and the ongoing symptoms.
We also explore how adapted behaviors might inadvertently worsen the condition, aiming to develop healthier patterns that support well-being. For many, potential childhood trauma can intersect with their current health challenges, and we work to untangle these complex layers.
My goal is to create a supportive and understanding environment where you feel heard and empowered. By addressing both the emotional and physical aspects of autoimmune diseases, I strive to help you lead fuller, more resilient lives.

Samantha Tomer, LLC
Licensed Professional Counsellor, M.Ed., LPC, NCC
Living with a chronic illness is life-changing and often misunderstood. Many people around you may not see the invisible ways you are suffering, leaving you feeling isolated or dismissed. As someone living with chronic illness myself, I understand both the emotional and physical toll it can take. I bring not only clinical expertise but lived experience to our work together, offering a space of compassion, validation, and practical strategies for navigating this complex journey.
