Stephanie Ennen
Therapist, LPC,LCPC, LMHC
I specialize in providing therapeutic support for individuals living with chronic pain. I understand that chronic pain can significantly impact not only your physical well-being but also your emotional health, relationships, and overall quality of life.
In our sessions, we will explore the complex relationship between pain, emotions, and daily functioning. Using a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness techniques, we will work together to identify and challenge negative thought patterns related to pain, helping you develop a more positive and empowering perspective.
I also incorporate mindfulness and relaxation strategies to help you cultivate awareness and acceptance of your pain. These practices can assist in reducing stress and promoting a sense of calm, allowing you to better manage discomfort.
Additionally, I emphasize psychoeducation to help you understand the nature of chronic pain and its effects on your life. By gaining insight into the mind-body connection, you can develop effective coping strategies and self-care routines tailored to your unique needs.
My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where you can express your feelings and experiences, empowering you to reclaim control over your life. Together, we can work towards improving your emotional resilience, enhancing your quality of life, and finding ways to navigate the challenges of chronic pain.

Telespera Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor
Living with conditions like migraines, fibromyalgia, or other chronic pain can feel like a constant battle. You never know when the pain will strike, derailing your plans and sidelining you from the life you’ve worked so hard to build. Worse, others may question your work ethic or even your sanity, leaving you feeling misunderstood and unsupported.
You’ve spent countless hours in pain, isolated in the dark, wondering if anyone truly cares or understands. And when you reach out for help, you’re often met with blank stares, half-hearted solutions, or advice that completely misses the point. Communicating your needs to doctors, employers, or even friends and loved ones feels like an uphill climb, leaving you longing for someone who really gets it.
But here’s the truth: you don’t have to accept a life of suffering and isolation. Relief is possible, and support is within reach. You deserve to be heard, understood, and helped.

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
I have made Chronic Illness and Pain a specialty in my practice and I have trained with some of the leading experts in that area. I have worked with many chronic pain sufferers, often eliminating all their pain even when it has been a long standing problem. As far as illnesses go, I have been able to eliminate all the symptoms of a client who was suffering from Progressive Supranuclear Palsy, a degenerative neurological condition related to ALS or Lou Gehrigs disease. When I first met him, he had been degenerating for 12 years, was confined to a wheelchair, could no longer speak, drooled constantly, suffered from tremors and repetitive movements, inability to sleep and he lacked motivation to do his physical therapy, the only treatment doctors could offer him. With no treatment or drugs for his condition, doctors expected him to die soon most likely from choking as he lost control of his swallowing. After one session, we stopped the tremors and repetitive movements, got him to sleep more soundly and do his PT. After a second session he was able to speak again and walk again. After 5 sessions one couldn't even tell he was sick and now 6 years later he is still gardening, walking his dog, hiking in the mountains. Soon after I worked with a gentleman who had developed an adult onset form of Muscular Dystrophy called Myotonic Dystrophy. Only 45 years old, he suffered from severe chronic fatigue, finding himself unable to get out of bed in the morning, taking hours to stand up. He had muscular pain and rigidity, painful joints and various digestive issues. The morning after our first session, he woke up full of energy and jumped out of bed. After a few more sessions we eliminated all his physical symptoms as well as clearing several emotional issues that had plagued him his whole life. Recently he contacted me to update me and report his still feeling good. I have also worked with clients with MS and Parkinsons> This past year I trained and certified in treating IBS and other gut conditions, learning a protocol which is considered the most effective treatment for these issues. I have also trained and certified in Hypno-Oncology, enabling me to support patients on their Cancer journey to deal with pain, anxiety, and the effects of treatment such as nausea. Recently, I worked with a woman with stage 4 lung Cancer. Her only hope was a new experimental protocol that involved a long needle inserted into the stomach. She had a lifelong needle phobia and was terrified. After the first grueling treatment she came home and cried and vomited for 3 days. After one session she went in for her second treatment and she was able to laugh and sing show tunes with the nurses throughout the treatment, felt no pain and went home calm and relaxed.

Therapy can play a crucial role in the management of chronic pain and illness, addressing the emotional impact these conditions can have on an individual's well-being. Therapy helps patients understand and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that may exacerbate their pain or illness. Mindfulness and relaxation can reduce stress and improve emotional resilience, enabling individuals to cope better with their symptoms. By integrating mental health support into chronic pain management, patients can achieve better overall health outcomes, enhance their quality of life, and develop healthier coping strategies.
