Ekta Abhay Lather
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Chronic pain is a challenging and often overwhelming condition that can deeply affect your life. It is characterized by persistent discomfort lasting longer than three months, even after injuries or underlying issues have healed. This pain can arise from various conditions, such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, or neuropathy, and it can significantly diminish your quality of life.
If you are living with chronic pain, you might find yourself facing physical limitations, emotional distress, and difficulties with daily activities. This can create a frustrating cycle that often leads to feelings of isolation.
It's important to know that you are not alone in this struggle. Managing chronic pain frequently requires a holistic approach, which may include medical treatments, physical therapy, lifestyle changes, and emotional support. Finding coping strategies, like mindfulness practices and stress management techniques, can be vital in helping you regain a sense of control and improve your overall well-being. Remember, taking small steps toward management can make a big difference in your journey.

Clayre Sessoms
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC, ATR-BC
Living with chronic pain or illness fundamentally changes your relationship with your environment, a reality compounded by a medical system that frequently dismisses marginalised or complex identities. I offer a slow, gentle online space in Vancouver to process the complex emotional grief, nervous system exhaustion, and isolation that physical suffering brings. Together, we will use somatic tracking to listen to your body's messages with kindness, moving toward a collaborative and compassionate relationship with your physical self.

Heal(ing) Trauma Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist, HBA, MPsy
From a trauma-informed perspective, chronic-pain and illness are both symptomatic of unresolved trauma, both physical and mental. The work we can do will include helping you better understand your health and how your mind and body impact each other. It can include helping you learn how to better cope with your condition, while also doing the processing work to resolve your trauma. It can also include helping you develop stronger self advocacy to better navigate through the health care systems.

Monika Georgieva
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Sc., RP
Living with chronic pain or illness every day can feel like carrying an invisible weight—draining your energy, testing your patience, and leaving you feeling alone or misunderstood. The impact often goes far beyond the physical, touching emotions, relationships, and your sense of self. From my own lived experience, I understand how isolating and overwhelming this can be. In therapy, we’ll create space for your story, build tools to ease stress and overwhelm, and nurture resilience and self-compassion. You don’t have to face this alone—together, we’ll work toward more ease, support, and a renewed sense of hope.
