Chronic Pain
Katia Erokhina
Counsellor/Therapist, PACFA Certified Practicing Counsellor, Master’s-qualified Gestalt Psychotherapist
I provide counselling and psychotherapy for individuals and couples living with chronic pain, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), hypermobility, and other long-term health conditions. Because I have personal experience with EDS, I understand the challenges that come with a new diagnosis, uncertainty, grief, and changes in what you can do. I help clients work through medical trauma, set boundaries, and express their needs. I also support people as they navigate how chronic illness affects their identity, intimacy, and relationships. My approach is relational, neuroaffirming, and trauma-informed. I focus on emotional and relationship wellbeing, rather than offering medical advice or treatment.

By integrating mindfulness practices and promoting psychological flexibility, we aim to help individuals reduce the impact of pain on their lives, enhance coping strategies, and improve overall quality of life. Our holistic approach acknowledges the interconnectedness of mind and body, empowering clients to navigate their health journey with resilience and support.

The Psychology Hub
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologists, General Psychologists, Educational & Developmental Psychologists, Mental Health and Disability Social Workers, Counsellors, Art Therapists
Living with a long-term health condition affects mood, sleep, relationships and identity, and the psychological side is often the part nobody asks about. We work with adults and young people on the emotional load, the adjustment, and the practical business of building a life around a condition rather than waiting for it to resolve. Where a GP has prepared a Chronic Disease Management plan, a Medicare rebate may apply for a limited number of sessions each calendar year.
