Chronic Pain
Chris Scarberry
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Some of the first clinical work I did was at Aids Project Los Angeles. I have always had a passion for working with people with chronic, sometimes unseen illnesses. I am always the most struck by their tenacity, how others often do not know or acknowledge the battle they are fighting, and all the work it takes to maintain one's overall health in the face oof chronic pain and illness. I draw from some of my own experienes as well as the experiences of others in connecting with clients living and struggling with these concerns. I always make sure to point out that people I work with are dealing with unfair circumstances, highlight their strengths and past methods of coping. I make sure you know that you matter a great deal and I see the entirety of what you have lived and overcome!

Chronic Pain
Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
Typically, Chronic Pain Syndrome patients come to see a psychologist after being seen by a number of other health professionals to no avail, including internal medicine physicians, orthopedists, surgeons, orthopedic surgeons, neurosurgeons, physical therapists, chiropractors, acupuncturists, emergency room doctors (for late-night injections of powerful pain killing drugs) and others. Typically, a Chronic Pain evaluation consists of several approaches to discovering which factors play the largest role in maintaining the pain. We ask patients to keep a Pain Diary for a week or two, which helps us pinpoint which activities or emotional states are related to an increase in pain level. This also helps us observe how they are actually taking their medications. We may also perform psychological testing to determine any underlying causes of depression or anxiety which should be treated in addition to the Chronic Pain and which could be helping to maintain it. At least one Family Session is held to explore whether there have been unconscious payoffs within the family for being in pain.
