Sydney, New South Wales therapist: Irene Valis, registered psychotherapist
Chronic Pain or Illness

Irene Valis

Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA certified Gestalt therapist, Counsellor, Life Coach
I suffered from chronic fatigue at the beginning of motherhood which lasted up to 6 years. After many consultations and trying various supplements, restrictive diets and mindset shifts there was no traction. Not because anything was wrong with me or my physical body, it was simply my nervous system's response to pushing too much for too long that it brought my body to a halt. Through my own healing and recovery, I have been able to support many of my clients in overcoming ailments such as hip pain, back pain, headaches, migraines, sweating and insomnia, fatigue, brain fog as well as IBS and long Covid. If you have an open mind and want to take agency in your condition I would love to guide you in this process of self-healing and resourcing.

Cardiff, Wales  therapist: Kyle Davies, psychologist
Chronic Pain or Illness

Kyle Davies

Psychologist, BSc MPhil CPsychol AFBPsS
Over the last 20 years I have worked extensively with sufferers of chronic fatigue and pain conditions such as ME, CFS, Adrenal Fatigue, Post-Viral Fatigue and fibromyalgia. Leading edge scientific evidence suggests that symptoms of these conditions result from changes, irregularities or dysfunctions within the mid-brain and limbic-hypothalamic-pituitary system. In academic terms this is known as the HPA axis, and is made up of the hypothalamus gland, located at the base of the brain; the pituitary gland, also located in the brain; and the adrenal glands, located on top of the kidneys. The hypothalamus links the nervous system and the endocrine system, it stimulates the pituitary gland to produce hormones and the adrenal gland to produce cortisol and epinephrine (commonly known as adrenaline). The HPA axis is a major part of the neuroendocrine system that controls and regulates almost everything to do with human survival, including digestion and appetite, sleep cycles, the immune system, mood and emotions, sexual behaviour, body temperature, energy storage and expenditure. It also communicates with several regions of the brain, including the amygdala, which generates fear in response to danger, and with the hippocampus, which plays an important part in memory formation as well as in mood and motivation. In addition, the HPA axis forms part of a complex feedback system that is constantly responding to the environment both internally and externally. In response to the information it receives, the HPA axis regulates and controls the chemicals and hormones that affect body systems. So what we can begin to see is that when irregularities are evident in these brain regions it wreaks havoc throughout the entire body – and this results in the experience of symptoms from mild to severe. In order to recover from chronic fatigue and pain symptoms we need to understand and address the CAUSE of the irregularities within the HPA axis and mid-brain structures. The first step in this process is to fully embrace the mind-body paradigm where we move away from the notion of the head and body, or psychological and physical, as being separate entities, rather we see them as one flowing interconnected system. The next step is to redefine the nature of emotion, an energy in motion, and it’s role as a feedback mechanism within body and brain.  As a complex physiological process, the emotional system directly modulates brain function.  Blockages within the emotional system and the emotional memory system are coded within the mid brain structures.  It is these blockages that result in hypothalamic and other mid brain irregularities and dysfunction. My treatment protocol is underpinned by this new theoretical framework and understanding of the emotional system and it’s role, function and impact on the immune, endocrine and autonomic nervous systems via the HPA axis. The process involves implementing a series of tools and techniques that are designed to identify and unblock the emotional system and recode emotional memory. Energy-Flow Coaching™ deals directly with the cause of symptoms and gives you the knowledge and guidance you need to take charge of your recovery and attain health and vitality.

Nottingham, England therapist: Emma Poxon, counselor/therapist
Chronic Pain or Illness

Emma Poxon

Counsellor/Therapist, MA Person-Centred Experiential Counselling
I am a late diagnosed therapist who has an ADHD diagnosis so I know first hand the challenges that disabled people face. I have found that disabled clients naturally gravitate towards me, it’s so lovely being able to have that immediate understanding of things that neurotypical people just don’t experience, saving the need to over explain and welcoming in supposed “weirdness”. This extends to disabilities outside of neurodiversity, as knowing what it’s like to navigate a world that is not catered to you is something that those without a disability don’t have the same insight into. You are not a problem to be fixed, my aim as your therapist is to try to provide the right conditions to allow you to explore whatever you want to bring to therapy to support your growth. This isn't a therapeutic approach wherein I will set a treatment plan or tell you what to do. We will work together as a partnership rather than me taking away your autonomy. I absolutely love the work I do, it is the biggest privilege being let into people’s personal worlds and seeing the immense growth of my clients. I hope to hear from you soon!
