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

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.

Brittany Speed, Hudson Valley Psychology
Psychologist, PhD
Living with a chronic health condition or persistent physical symptoms can affect far more than your physical health. Chronic pain, illness, and conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) can influence your mood, increase stress and anxiety, disrupt sleep, and make it harder to engage in the activities and relationships that matter to you.
I specialize in behavioral medicine, helping individuals navigate the emotional and practical challenges of living with chronic health conditions, with a particular interest in gastrointestinal disorders, including IBS and other disorders of gut-brain interaction (DGBI). These conditions involve complex interactions between the brain and digestive system that can contribute to heightened sensitivity and distressing symptoms. Although factors such as stress, certain foods, and hormonal changes may exacerbate symptoms, this does not mean that symptoms are imagined or simply caused by stress.
Using evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I help individuals better understand the relationship between physical symptoms, stress, emotions, and daily behaviors. Together, we’ll identify patterns that may be contributing to symptom distress, develop strategies for managing symptoms and stress, and work toward improving daily functioning and quality of life. The goal is not to dismiss or minimize your physical symptoms, but to help you feel better equipped to navigate the challenges of living with a chronic condition and participate more fully in the life you want to live.

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.
