Dr. Ann Becker-Schutte; Healthy Balanced Life Psychology, LLC
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Our physical and emotional health are intimately connected. When you are living a body that is unreliable or in pain, that can create relationship stress, depression and anxiety. Throughout my career, I have focused on the unique challenges faced by patients or caregivers who are coping with serious illness.

Andrea Elkon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Pain is so much more than a number on a Pain Scale. Your activity, your relationships, your thoughts, and your mood can all affect your experience of pain. Together we are going to examine all of the different things that make your pain worse. We will discover how you're daily activities and your beliefs around pain can fuel the cycle of pain. We will then develop tools to interrupt that cycle and do more with less pain. Please feel free to reach out to me to learn more about my approach to treating chronic pain.

Dr. Evette Addai
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Are you or your child finding it hard to cope with your child's medical diagnosis? Are you trying to find ways to deal the stress of having your child swallow different medications, watching blood sugar, or getting shots/pokes? Maybe your child asks questions about why they are different from other kids and you would like to know how to respond? I can help you and your child to find empowering ways to accept their emotions around an illness, evidence based ways to help with behaviors needed to keep up with the doctors orders, and a safe space to talk about the stressors from the illness and also to highlight the wins.

Amy K. Cummings-Aponte, LMHC
Licensed Professional Counselor, Florida LMHC MH20515, Maine LPC CC6872
As someone who lives with a chronic illness, I truly understand the challenges those who have such an illness face and I use a holistic approach in helping those with either of these challenges to live a better life. Both hypnosis and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy have proven helpful in reducing chronic pain or other symptoms experienced by those with illness or injury. (Please note, this work requires a referral from your treating physician).
