Chronic Pain therapists in North Port, Florida FL
Dr. David Liebert
Counselor/Therapist
In the vast majority of primary care settings, pain is likely to be treated as a biomedical problem, thereby leaving psychosocial factors unidentified, unaddressed, and poorly treated. Whereas a biopsychosocial treatment model for chronic pain recognizes that these other factors (i.e., "psychological" and "social") strongly influence the degree to which one experiences pain. I use evidence-based behavioral health strategies to improve functioning, decrease pain, reduce distress, and empower clients to live a meaningful life.

Dr. Ruhama Hazout
Psychologist, Psy.D.
My treatment for chronic pain emphasizes managing discomfort and improving life satisfaction, employing techniques that enhance coping skills and encourage active participation in enjoyable activities. This approach aims to diminish the impact of pain on daily life, fostering resilience and a greater sense of well-being.

Susanne R Mealer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Chronic pain is not just dealing with the pain and dealing with illness is not just about dealing with a specific illness. Often, these issues can lead to depression, anxiety, anger and resentment and they affect every relationship you have including the one with yourself.

Amy K. Cummings-Aponte, LMHC
Licensed Professional Counselor, Florida LMHC MH20515, Maine LPC CC6872
As someone who lives with a chronic illness, I truly understand the challenges those who have such an illness face and I use a holistic approach in helping those with either of these challenges to live a better life. Both hypnosis and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy have proven helpful in reducing chronic pain or other symptoms experienced by those with illness or injury. (Please note, this work requires a referral from your treating physician).
