Michael Zamrin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSW, MA
I have a strong interest in helping people reduce or eliminate chronic pain using evidence-based, mind-body approaches. I’ve completed a certification in Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), a cutting-edge method for treating chronic pain, and continue to deepen my knowledge through advanced training in related mind-body techniques. These approaches are grounded in the understanding that, in many cases, chronic pain is not caused by structural damage or disease, but by neural circuits in the brain that become sensitized—often as a protective response to fear, stress, or unresolved emotions. This pain is very real, but it is what we call “neuroplastic,” meaning it can change. The brain can be retrained to stop sending pain signals once it no longer perceives a threat. Through education, emotional processing, and targeted strategies, I help clients break the cycle of pain and begin to reclaim comfort, confidence, and control in their bodies and lives.

Sara Deese
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, MCAP, LMHC-QS
Living with chronic pain or illness can affect every part of your life—physically, emotionally, and mentally. It’s more than just managing symptoms; it’s coping with grief, limitations, and often feeling misunderstood or isolated. I work with individuals navigating ongoing health challenges to process the emotional toll, build effective coping strategies, and reconnect with a sense of purpose and identity beyond the illness. Together, we’ll create space for healing, resilience, and hope—even in the midst of pain

Clearwater is a Pinellas County city on Tampa Bay that serves as the international headquarters of the Church of Scientology, a presence that gives the city a distinctive character unlike any other of its size in the United States and creates unique mental health considerations—the city's downtown is heavily occupied by Scientology organizations, and the community dynamics around current members, Sea Org workers, and those navigating departure from the church create specific needs for therapists familiar with high-control religious groups. Beyond the Scientology context, Clearwater is a popular Gulf Coast retirement destination and a growing healthcare and tech community, and its beautiful Gulf beaches support a strong tourism and hospitality economy. Morton Plant Hospital's behavioral health services and a private therapy sector serve the broader community. Common therapy concerns include religious deconstruction and recovery from high-control group involvement, retiree adjustment and aging, anxiety, depression, and the relationship and family strains that arise in a community divided by one of its most prominent institutions.
