Chronic Pain
Dyani Saxby
Psychologist, Ph.D., ABPP, DBSM
There is a difference between living with chronic pain and suffering with it. Suffering includes depression, unresolved grief, anxiety, isolation, and withdrawal. Chronic pain can cause these feelings because we grieve what we used to be able to do and feel that pain robs us of living a full life. Sometimes we feel like we lose ourselves entirely. When we are in a depressed or anxious mood state for a long period of time, we actually end up experiencing worse pain (and often worse sleep), which results in a vicious cycle that can feel impossible to break. The good news is that I have helped hundreds of patients improve how they respond to their pain and also lower their overall pain levels. They began to accept what they cannot control and also learn how to have more control over their pain levels through techniques such as physical pacing, relaxation, and clinical hypnosis. With board certifications in clinical health psychology, behavioral sleep medicine, and extensive training in clinical hypnosis, I can teach you skills to break the cycle of chronic pain and suffering.

Chronic Pain
Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies
Psychologist, Ed.D., ABPP
Chronic Pain whether caused by accidents, injuries, diseases, aging and emotional factors robs us of opportunities for happiness and fulfillment and often impacts every aspect of our lives. I offer clients a comprehensive approach to reduce and manage pain incorporating strategies like cognitive behavior therapy, hypnosis, EMDR, mindfulness, exercise, and nutritional guidance. As a chronic back pain sufferer myself for many years, I have learned about the causes of pain and the wide variety of tools that can be used to cope, reduce and in some cases eliminate it all together. Sometimes, working with other health professionals in an inter-disciplinary manner offers the best combination of treatment. During out time together we will discuss, evaluate and decide together what might work best for you.

Chronic Pain
Dr. Amy Karbasi
Psychologist, PsyD
I specialize in therapy for adults living with chronic pain or chronic illness, including persistent pain, fatigue, and complex or invisible health conditions. I understand that living with ongoing symptoms can affect much more than physical functioning, often influencing mood, relationships, sleep, identity, and the ability to participate in everyday life. My work integrates evidence-based psychological approaches with an understanding of the connection between the brain, nervous system, emotions, behavior, and physical symptoms, helping you develop effective ways to respond to your symptoms while building a meaningful life.

Topeka is Kansas's state capital and a city with an unusually significant mental health history—the Menninger Clinic, for decades one of the world's leading psychiatric institutions, was founded and based in Topeka before relocating to Houston in 2003, leaving a legacy of mental health awareness and professional expertise that still influences the community. The city is also historically significant as the location of the plaintiffs in Brown v. Board of Education, the landmark Supreme Court desegregation case, and the ongoing work of racial equity remains an important dimension of community life and mental health context. Stormont Vail Health provides behavioral health services, and a private therapy sector serves Topeka's mix of government, legal, and healthcare workers alongside the broader population. Common therapy concerns include depression, anxiety, racial justice and identity, economic stress in a mid-size state capital, and the particular challenges of a community working to reimagine its future.
