Chronic Pain
Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP
I work with adults living with chronic pain or long-term health conditions and the ways these experiences can shape identity, mood, relationships, and daily life. Chronic pain often brings layers of loss, frustration, and adaptation, alongside the ongoing effort of managing physical symptoms.
My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to explore the emotional and psychological impact of chronic illness without reducing it to mindset or positivity. The focus is on understanding how pain is lived with, responded to, and organised around internally, rather than trying to eliminate it. Sessions are shaped around energy levels and may involve conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both.

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.

Leeds is a major financial, legal, and digital services hub and one of the UK's fastest-growing cities outside London, creating consistent demand for therapists specialising in workplace stress, perfectionism, and burnout among its large professional population. The city has three major universities — the University of Leeds, Leeds Beckett, and Leeds Trinity — generating significant demand for therapists who work with academic pressure, young adult mental health, and the stresses of student life. Leeds and York Partnership NHS Foundation Trust provides public mental health services, with a private therapy community serving Chapel Allerton, Headingley, and the city centre. Leeds's large South Asian and Eastern European communities also drive growing demand for multilingual and culturally affirming therapists.
