Semra Lamky, Emotional Peace Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP), Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC), MACP, Bsc
I support individuals living with chronic pain and illness by offering a compassionate, validating space to process the emotional and psychological impact of ongoing physical challenges. Chronic conditions can affect every part of life—identity, relationships, mental health, and daily functioning. Using a trauma-informed, holistic approach, I help clients manage stress, cope with limitations, and reconnect with a sense of control and meaning. Together, we work to build emotional resilience and improve overall well-being, even in the face of ongoing physical symptoms.

Chronic Pain
Caitlin Marchand
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Chronic pain or illness is a widespread phenomena, however lots of people feel as though they need to keep their experiences to themselves. Therapy can provide a safe and non-judgmental space to explore your thoughts and feelings about navigating life's challenges and resisting socio-cultural expectations about what your life "should" look like. Your experience is real and valid, and I work collaboratively with clients to not only explore your experiences, but to also highlight your successes and celebrate the way you do things. Book a free consultation to learn more about my approach and explore if we are a good fit.

Chronic Pain
Maor Bernshtein, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
Living with chronic pain, chronic illness, or persistent symptoms can affect more than your body. It can change how you work, sleep, relate to others, and imagine your future. Other people may see you functioning without realizing what it costs you afterward, while you feel exhausted, isolated, or worn down by living in a body you can no longer fully trust. Therapy cannot erase the physical realities you face. It can give you a place to process what your health has changed, navigate uncertainty, strengthen your ability to cope, and build a life that feels more manageable and meaningful.

Chronic Pain
Lori Schledewitz
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, RP
Living with chronic pain or illness can affect far more than your physical health. It can influence your emotions, relationships, sense of safety, and ability to participate in the life you want.
You may find yourself anticipating pain, worrying about your body, or avoiding activities because of fear of making things worse. Over time, life can become smaller as pain, fear, frustration, grief, and uncertainty begin to shape your choices.
EMDR therapy can be a valuable part of this work, particularly when pain or illness is connected with trauma, distressing medical experiences, injury, or heightened fear and emotional responses. As an EMDRIA-certified therapist, I can help you process these experiences and reduce the distress associated with them. EMDR does not eliminate physical pain or suggest that pain is “all in your head”—the focus is on changing your relationship with the experiences and responses surrounding it.
Together, we’ll also draw on ACT and mindfulness-based approaches to develop greater flexibility and self-compassion, reduce avoidance, and make room for the people, activities, and experiences that matter to you.
You may not be able to choose what your body is experiencing, but you can develop greater freedom in how you respond—and create more space for a meaningful life alongside it.

Chronic Pain
Havenwood Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Chronic pain can affect much more than your physical health. It can change your relationships, identity, mood, independence, and ability to participate in everyday life. Therapy can provide space to process the emotional impact of living with pain while developing ways to cope with stress, overwhelm, and the changes chronic pain can bring.
Taylor offers a compassionate, trauma-informed space for exploring the emotional and relational impact of chronic pain. Together, you can work toward greater self-understanding, emotional regulation, and ways of caring for yourself that acknowledge both your physical and emotional experience.

Chronic Pain
Kennedy McLean Counselling & Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist
Chronic Pain can turn your life upside down. It can make you feel helpless and alone, like you have lost everything and that your life is over. What if there was another way? What if we told you that your life may never be the same but that you could still have a full life? Would you take this chance?

Pursue You Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., R.P
Living with chronic pain or a long-term illness can impact your mental health, daily functioning, and sense of self. At Pursue You Psychotherapy, we understand the emotional toll of managing persistent symptoms, medical uncertainty, and the changes that come with chronic conditions. Our therapists specialize in providing compassionate, evidence-based support to help you build resilience, cope with challenges, and reclaim a sense of control in your life.
We provide treatment that targets:
-Health Anxiety & Medical Trauma – Fear of symptoms worsening, constant worry about health, or distress from past medical experiences.
-Pain-Related Anxiety & Depression – Feeling overwhelmed, hopeless, or fearful about how pain impacts your future.
-Adjustment & Identity Struggles – Grieving lost abilities, navigating career changes, or redefining self-worth beyond illness.
-Perfectionism & Productivity Guilt – Struggling with the pressure to "push through" or feeling guilty for resting.
-Isolation & Relationship Challenges – Difficulty communicating needs, feeling misunderstood, or withdrawing from social life.
-Emotional & Somatic Regulation – Learning to manage stress, frustration, and the mind-body connection in pain management.
Our therapeutic approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), Somatic & Nervous System Regulation, and Self-Compassion Practices to help you reframe unhelpful thought patterns, regulate emotions, and build sustainable coping strategies. Your pain or illness does not define you. Whether you are seeking validation, coping tools, or a way to reconnect with joy, we are here to support your journey toward emotional well-being and a fulfilling life.
