Living with chronic pain or illness can affect every part of your life, including your identity, relationships, mood, and sense of independence.

Ashley Higgins
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Coping with chronic illness is a balance of acceptance and change. I support people with chronic illness and disability in accepting themselves, teaching coping skills for pain and other symptoms, and advocating for the accommodations and services they need.

Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
Typically, Chronic Pain Syndrome patients come to see a psychologist after being seen by a number of other health professionals to no avail, including internal medicine physicians, orthopedists, surgeons, orthopedic surgeons, neurosurgeons, physical therapists, chiropractors, acupuncturists, emergency room doctors (for late-night injections of powerful pain killing drugs) and others. Typically, a Chronic Pain evaluation consists of several approaches to discovering which factors play the largest role in maintaining the pain. We ask patients to keep a Pain Diary for a week or two, which helps us pinpoint which activities or emotional states are related to an increase in pain level. This also helps us observe how they are actually taking their medications. We may also perform psychological testing to determine any underlying causes of depression or anxiety which should be treated in addition to the Chronic Pain and which could be helping to maintain it. At least one Family Session is held to explore whether there have been unconscious payoffs within the family for being in pain.

Hypnotherapist, C.Ht.
Chronic pain or illness can affect not only the body, but also emotional well-being and quality of life. Hypnotherapy supports the mind–body connection by helping reduce stress, improve coping, and shift how pain is perceived. Sessions focus on increasing comfort, resilience, and a greater sense of control alongside medical care.
