Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In supporting individuals coping with chronic pain or illness, I offer a compassionate and holistic approach to help them manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life. Through therapy, we explore the physical, emotional, and psychological aspects of their condition, as well as the impact it has on their daily functioning and well-being. I provide validation and support, helping patients navigate the challenges and uncertainties of living with chronic pain or illness. Together, we develop coping strategies and techniques to manage symptoms, reduce stress, and enhance self-care. Additionally, I assist patients in adjusting to lifestyle changes, setting realistic goals, and fostering resilience in the face of adversity. My goal is to empower patients to live fulfilling and meaningful lives, despite the challenges posed by their condition.

You don’t have to put on a brave face or pretend everything is fine. At Open Book Therapy, we’ll make space for the grief, frustration, uncertainty, and adjustments that come with your experience while exploring coping strategies that fit YOUR needs. You deserve support that honors your reality, not pressure to simply “stay positive.”

Donald Glenn
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC
I possess a unique background as someone who worked as a medical provider (physician assistant) for over 25 years, prior to becoming a full-time therapist. The majority of my medical career was in primary care medicine, thus I have decades of experience working with chronic illness and chronic pain conditions. This level of knowledge allows me to understand my chronic illness clients in a more comprehensive manner, thus allowing me to thoroughly address their needs.
