Chronic Pain
Donna McLean
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, BA Honours (Psychology), MSW, RSW
Chronic pain or illness can feel limiting , making it hard to find pleasure in life. I know, having lived with a chronic illness for decades. I can travel with you as you navigate these challenges, and offer tools for managing some of the psychological struggle that goes along with the physical struggle; struggles like "why me", the stress and pain of trying to get through the day, feeling different from others, and the uncertainty and helplessness you may feel. There are tools like grounding, mindfulness and acceptance I can help you with, and we can do work with past experiences that may be contributing to some of your present psychological suffering.

Chronic Pain
Dr. Patrick McGrath
Psychologist, O.C., C. Psychologist
Living with chronic pain or a persistent health condition—such as fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), or chronic headaches—takes a profound physical and emotional toll. The mind and body are deeply connected, and dealing with invisible symptoms can often leave you feeling isolated or fatigued by constant management. Using a collaborative, evidence-based cognitive behavioural approach, we will work together to help you navigate the heavy emotional weight of chronic illness, pace your energy, and develop compassionate strategies to improve your quality of life and restore a sense of agency.

Chronic Pain
Kayla Schofield
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Chronic Pain or physical illnnesses often have a psychological impact as well. Working with the mind body approach learning how emotions impact physical illnesses and vice versa. Being curious of why the pain or illness is present and your relationship to it. Relaxation techniques are especially important in implementing in everyday routines.
