Chronic Pain
Mariana Carabantes, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Pain is invisible to others, which can leave you feeling lonely and misunderstood. Fibromyalgia, Crohn's disease, immune disorders, irritable bowel syndrome, ulcerative colitis, trigeminal neuralgia, rheumatoid arthritis, arthritis, and nerve damage are just a few. Any condition that affects daily function and is accompanied by chronic pain may require adjustment and acceptance. Chronic conditions and pain take a huge toll on our emotional wellbeing.

Chronic Pain
Resilient Counseling, Coaching & Consulting
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
As your therapist, I understand the challenges of dealing with chronic illness; I work hard to manage my autoimmune conditions and the resulting painful symptoms. As a result, I am dedicated to compassionately helping you manage the emotional distress and and complicated decision-making that often accompany living with chronic pain and illness. Additionally, I will help you explore strategies to reduce physical tension which in many cases reduces the intensity and frequency of physical pain. My holistic approach focuses on addressing your physical sensations of tension and pain, as well as the overwhelming emotions and unwanted thoughts that can arise. Together, we will explore the root causes of your distress and work towards creating effective solutions for a more fulfilling life while managing your symptoms. Using a variety of therapeutic modalities—including Somatic Therapies, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, Eye Movement Integration, Internal Family Systems, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Emotional Freedom Techniques—we will empower you to develop insight and strategies that enhance your resilience and lifestyle. You are not alone on this journey; I will support you during this challenging time.

Chronic Pain
Chelsie Ciminelli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Holistic Health Practitioner
I support individuals navigating the emotional and psychological challenges of living with chronic illness, chronic pain, fatigue, or ongoing health concerns. Chronic illness can profoundly affect your sense of identity, relationships, independence, and connection with your body, often bringing grief, fear, frustration, anxiety, or a sense of losing the life you once imagined. In addition to supporting the emotional impact of illness, I offer integrative mind-body and somatic modalities that explore the deeper emotional patterns, unresolved experiences, and underlying factors that may be contributing to or interacting with your physical symptoms and overall well-being. Together, we work to cultivate greater nervous-system regulation, self-compassion, body awareness, and trust while honoring the complexity of your individual healing journey.

Chronic Pain
Dr Todd Giardina
Psychologist, PhD, Counseling Psychology
I trained in chronic pain management in many hospitals during my PhD program and beyond. I have since worked in hospitals and clinics for many years before transitioning into private practice. I understand much of the medical lingo and the confusing messaging one can receive from MDs - I can help put you at ease while also teaching you to advocate for yourself around your illness. The biggest component with chronic pain, of course, is acknowledging the interplay between mental and physical pain - "it's all in your head" is a dismissive statement some may hear, but also we work from the truth that pain is somewhat in your head, and that is how a psychologist can help you learn to manage physical pain.
