Raleigh, North Carolina therapist: Brittany Washington, marriage and family therapist
Chronic Pain or Illness

Brittany Washington

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFTA
I have a deep understanding of the emotional, relational, and psychological toll that chronic illness can take on individuals and families. As both a clinician and a passionate advocate, I specialize in supporting clients living with conditions such as epilepsy, PNES, and Functional Neurological Disorder (FND). My approach acknowledges the unique challenges of navigating medical systems, identity shifts, and the impact on self-esteem and relationships. Through compassionate, personalized therapy, I help clients process their experiences, build resilience, and reclaim a sense of control and purpose in their lives—beyond their diagnosis.

Charlotte, North Carolina therapist: Susanne R Mealer, licensed clinical social worker
Chronic Pain or Illness

Susanne R Mealer

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Chronic pain is not just dealing with the pain and dealing with illness is not just about dealing with a specific illness. Often, these issues can lead to depression, anxiety, anger and resentment and they affect every relationship you have including the one with yourself.

Matthews, North Carolina therapist: Seaford Counseling Services, counselor/therapist
Chronic Pain or Illness

Seaford Counseling Services

Counselor/Therapist, M.Ed, LCMHC
I have chronic pain myself, and I've been the victim of many physicians who dismiss me and my pain. Personally, I understand you, and professionally I know how to help you! Mindfulness, guided muscle relaxation, and meditation have been shown in large studies as well as in my office to significantly decrease the frequency, intensity, and length of time that pain persists.

Raleigh, North Carolina therapist: Nour Counseling, counselor/therapist
Chronic Pain or Illness

Nour Counseling

Counselor/Therapist
Living with chronic pain or illness is not just a physical experience—it impacts your energy, your identity, your relationships, and how you move through daily life. Many people find themselves navigating medical systems that feel dismissive, confusing, or exhausting, while also trying to keep up with responsibilities that don’t adjust to their reality. There can be grief, frustration, isolation, and the ongoing pressure to “push through,” even when your body is asking for something different. Cultural beliefs about health, productivity, and worth can make this even harder, especially when your experience is minimized or not fully understood. At Nour Counseling, we take your experience seriously. We work with you to understand how chronic pain or illness is affecting you—not just physically, but emotionally and mentally—and help you build ways of coping that are actually sustainable. This might include pacing, boundary-setting, navigating medical interactions, managing uncertainty, and finding ways to stay connected to yourself and your life even within limitations. We also make space for the systemic and cultural factors that shape your experience, so you’re not carrying that context alone. This work is about supporting you in creating a life that feels more manageable, more aligned, and more compassionate toward your body as it is.

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania therapist: Elemental Self Institute, licensed clinical social worker
Chronic Pain or Illness

Elemental Self Institute

Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Erin, Megan, Baillie, and Hannah all live with and work with clients who experienced chronic pain or illness. While everyone's experience is different and we do not assume that we fully understand your pain, each of us also understands that there is a certain element of chronic illness or disability that is hard to "get" unless you have experienced it yourself, firsthand. We aim to make therapy make sense for you and your life, not diminish or invalidate your reality.

Charlotte's position as a major banking and financial hub drives strong demand for therapists specializing in workplace stress, perfectionism, and the particular pressures of corporate and executive careers. The city has grown rapidly through domestic migration, and therapists frequently work with the isolation, loneliness, and adjustment difficulties common among newcomers building community in a fast-growing city. Charlotte also has a strong faith community, and many therapists offer faith-integrated approaches alongside evidence-based treatment for clients who value that alignment. Atrium Health and Novant Health serve as the city's major institutional mental health anchors.
