Beth Kurland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Living with chronic pain or illness can feel all-consuming, touching every aspect of daily life. Physically, the body can get caught in patterns of protection—staying in fight, flight, or freeze mode. Mentally, negative thoughts and fears can take hold, intensifying distress. Over time, life may begin to feel smaller and more restricted. My approach addresses the whole person: helping the body find balance and safety, the mind find perspective and calm, and daily life expand again toward meaningful, nourishing experiences. Together, we’ll work toward helping you live with greater ease, resilience, and a renewed sense of possibility.

Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
You’ve been told it’s “just stress,” that “your labs look fine,” or that maybe it’s “all in your head.” But deep down, you know something’s not right. Living with chronic pain or illness—especially when it’s invisible to others—can feel both physically exhausting and emotionally isolating. Maybe you’re grieving the life you once had, constantly justifying your experience to people who don’t understand, or quietly wondering if you’re just supposed to push through. Dr. Jenny Shields offers something different: a space where you don’t have to prove your pain to be taken seriously.
With warmth, respect, and clinical expertise, Dr. Shields works with people navigating the complex realities of illness—whether you’ve recently received a diagnosis, are stuck in a cycle of uncertainty, or have been managing symptoms for years. Drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness-based tools, and trauma-informed care, she helps you move through grief, frustration, and fear with compassion. Together, you’ll explore how to live a meaningful life in a body that doesn’t always cooperate—on your own terms.

JHC Therapy - Judy Hakiel-Calcaterra
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Licensed Mental Health Therapist
Chronic pain counseling focuses on helping individuals cope with the ongoing challenges that come with living in pain. Chronic pain can affect so much more than just physical health, it often impacts mood, relationships, daily functioning, and overall emotional well-being.
In counseling, we work together to address both the physical and emotional toll chronic pain can take. The goal is to develop coping strategies, build resilience, and find ways to improve quality of life while navigating the realities of living with long-term pain.

Kaijah Bjorklund
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LMHC
Living with chronic pain or illness is exhausting in ways that go far beyond the physical. It can shake your sense of identity, grieve the life you had before, and leave you feeling isolated in an experience others can't fully understand. I bring a whole-person, body-centered lens to this work — rooted in my background in somatic therapy and bodywork — helping you process the emotional weight of chronic illness, reduce stress that amplifies physical symptoms, and rebuild a relationship with your body that feels more like partnership than battle.
