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.

Chelsie Ciminelli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Holistic Health Practitioner
I support individuals navigating the emotional and psychological challenges of living with chronic illness, chronic pain, fatigue, or ongoing health concerns. Chronic illness can profoundly affect your sense of identity, relationships, independence, and connection with your body, often bringing grief, fear, frustration, anxiety, or a sense of losing the life you once imagined. In addition to supporting the emotional impact of illness, I offer integrative mind-body and somatic modalities that explore the deeper emotional patterns, unresolved experiences, and underlying factors that may be contributing to or interacting with your physical symptoms and overall well-being. Together, we work to cultivate greater nervous-system regulation, self-compassion, body awareness, and trust while honoring the complexity of your individual healing journey.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Managing chronic pain and illness exhausts many of the social and personal resources we have just to get through the day. Feelings of isolation and being alone in this struggle are insidious and can take away from our ability to remain connected to others and within ourselves. Whether it is not wanting to burden others with our struggle or feelings of hopelessness, people need to know (and feel) that they are valuable enough to continue to be cared for while also provided with space through encouragement that honors our autonomy.
