Dr Todd Giardina
Psychologist, PhD, Counseling Psychology
I trained in chronic pain management in many hospitals during my PhD program and beyond. I have since worked in hospitals and clinics for many years before transitioning into private practice. I understand much of the medical lingo and the confusing messaging one can receive from MDs - I can help put you at ease while also teaching you to advocate for yourself around your illness. The biggest component with chronic pain, of course, is acknowledging the interplay between mental and physical pain - "it's all in your head" is a dismissive statement some may hear, but also we work from the truth that pain is somewhat in your head, and that is how a psychologist can help you learn to manage physical pain.

Dr. Kelly Scherger
Psychologist, PhD, CST
Living with chronic pain or illness can affect far more than just your physical health—it can influence your mood, relationships, sense of self, daily functioning, and especially quality of life. I support individuals navigating the emotional and psychological challenges of ongoing health concerns, including chronic pain, cancer, and other chronic illnesses. Through a compassionate, holistic approach, we explore strategies for coping, building strength and resilience, and finding meaning and balance while honoring the realities of your health experience and limitations.

Michael Berry
Psychologist, PhD
My work with chronic pain focuses on the complex interaction between the mind, body, and nervous system. I use evidence-based cognitive behavioral and biopsychosocial approaches to help patients better understand the factors that can influence pain—including stress, emotions, sleep, activity, and patterns of attention and avoidance—while developing practical strategies to improve functioning and quality of life. Treatment is collaborative and individualized, with an emphasis on helping patients build a more effective relationship with pain and reconnect with the activities and values that matter most.

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.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Managing chronic pain and illness exhausts many of the social and personal resources we have just to get through the day. Feelings of isolation and being alone in this struggle are insidious and can take away from our ability to remain connected to others and within ourselves. Whether it is not wanting to burden others with our struggle or feelings of hopelessness, people need to know (and feel) that they are valuable enough to continue to be cared for while also provided with space through encouragement that honors our autonomy.
