Living with chronic pain or illness can affect more than just your body. It can impact your mood, energy, relationships, and sense of control over your life. You may find yourself feeling frustrated, discouraged, or stuck trying to manage symptoms while still keeping up with daily responsibilities.
Our work focuses on helping you navigate the mental and emotional side of chronic conditions. You’ll learn ways to respond to stress more effectively, reduce overwhelm, and build strategies that support your day-to-day functioning. The goal is to help you feel more steady, capable, and in control, even when symptoms are unpredictable.

Sara Deese
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, MCAP, LMHC-QS
Living with chronic pain or illness can affect every part of your life—physically, emotionally, and mentally. It’s more than just managing symptoms; it’s coping with grief, limitations, and often feeling misunderstood or isolated. I work with individuals navigating ongoing health challenges to process the emotional toll, build effective coping strategies, and reconnect with a sense of purpose and identity beyond the illness. Together, we’ll create space for healing, resilience, and hope—even in the midst of 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.
