Carey Luker
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC, LPC
Living with chronic pain or a chronic illness can be incredibly draining, not just physically, but emotionally too. It’s hard carrying the stress of symptoms, appointments, fatigue, and the feeling that life takes so much more effort than it seems to for everyone else. Many people also struggle with anxiety, frustration, grief, isolation, or feeling misunderstood by those around them. My goal is to create a space where you don’t have to minimize what you’re going through or hold it all together alone. Together, we focus on finding support, coping tools, self-compassion, and ways to make life feel a little lighter, more manageable, and more supportive of your needs.

Chronic pain makes people miserable. Even though we may not be able to make the pain disappear, together, we can develop strategies to help you manage it.

Michael Zamrin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSW, MA
I have a strong interest in helping people reduce or eliminate chronic pain using evidence-based, mind-body approaches. I’ve completed a certification in Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), a cutting-edge method for treating chronic pain, and continue to deepen my knowledge through advanced training in related mind-body techniques. These approaches are grounded in the understanding that, in many cases, chronic pain is not caused by structural damage or disease, but by neural circuits in the brain that become sensitized—often as a protective response to fear, stress, or unresolved emotions. This pain is very real, but it is what we call “neuroplastic,” meaning it can change. The brain can be retrained to stop sending pain signals once it no longer perceives a threat. Through education, emotional processing, and targeted strategies, I help clients break the cycle of pain and begin to reclaim comfort, confidence, and control in their bodies and lives.

Lauren Green
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S., LPC
I am certified in Pain Reprocessing Therapy which is a therapeutic approach for reducing fear related to pain by learning more about neuroplastic pain vs structural pain .I specialize in providing therapy for individuals with chronic pain or illness and can bring my own experience to the work I do. I have migraines and a partner with chronic illness as well as chronic pain, so I identify with both people with chronic pain as well as caregivers and partners of people with chronic pain and the challenges this presents for both..
