Chronic Pain
Kristen Jackson Banister
Counselor/Therapist, M.A. LPC SEP
Living with chronic pain or illness can be physically and emotionally exhausting. It often affects your identity, relationships, and sense of control. In therapy, we explore the connection between body, stress, and emotional experience—supporting nervous system regulation, resilience, and self-compassion. This work is not about “fixing” your body, but about changing your relationship to what you’re carrying.

10 Years Experience
Online in Akron, OH (Online Only)
Akron's identity as the 'Rubber City' — once the world capital of tire manufacturing — has given way to a post-industrial economy navigating transformation, and therapists here frequently address the long-term psychological effects of deindustrialization: economic stress, community grief, and the identity challenges of a workforce that has had to reinvent itself across generations. The city is home to the University of Akron and has a growing health sciences and polymer science sector, creating a more economically diverse population than its industrial reputation suggests. Summa Health and Cleveland Clinic Akron General provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private therapy community concentrated in West Akron, Fairlawn, and the Highland Square neighborhood. Akron's significant Black community and the city's ongoing recovery from decades of economic decline shape a therapy culture in which community resilience and racial equity are recurring clinical themes.
