Chronic Pain
Shelly Melroe
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
In trying to resolve your chronic pain or illness, you may have exhausted options for medical solutions. At Rhythm For Living, Shelly will work with you to understand how pain and illness can be manifestations of trauma held in the body from early life experiences (including pre-birth, birth, pre-verbal), physical injury, or invasive medical procedures). She uses neural interventions that enable trauma to be discharged from the body to restore the healthy autonomic functioning in your nervous system, reducing experiences of pain and medically unexplained illnesses.

Chronic Pain
Ann Aspnes
Psychologist, PhD, ABPP
In treating chronic pain, I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Chronic Pain (CBT-CP) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you reclaim your quality of life. Together, we focus on concrete pain-coping strategies, including relaxation techniques and mindfulness, to quiet the physical stress response and alter how your brain processes pain signals. We also target distressing thought patterns like catastrophizing—which can amplify physical suffering—replacing them with grounded, empowering perspectives. Using ACT, our ultimate goal shifts from fighting the pain to building a rich, value-driven life alongside it, ensuring that chronic pain no longer dictates your choices, goals, or daily well-being.

Chronic Pain
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.

Chronic Pain
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.
