Chronic Pain
Abelee Groff
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
I work with adults experiencing chronic pain or illness using a trauma-informed, mind-body approach that recognizes the complex interaction between physical symptoms, emotions, and daily life. I focus on helping clients understand how stress, anxiety, and past experiences can amplify pain while supporting strategies for coping, pacing, and self-care.
I integrate somatic, parts-informed, and mindfulness-based approaches to help clients regulate the nervous system, reduce overwhelm, and build resilience. My work emphasizes collaboration, self-compassion, and practical tools to improve quality of life, emotional well-being, and the way clients relate to their bodies and experiences of chronic illness.

Chronic Pain
Dr. Weston Donaldson
Psychologist, PhD, ABPP
When your health changes, it's not just your body that has to adjust. You may lose energy, independence, spontaneity, or the ability to do things you once took for granted. Plans become harder to make, relationships may shift, and the future you imagined might suddenly look different. You may be frustrated with your body, tired of explaining yourself, or feeling guilty about what you can no longer do. When you're LGBTQ+, you may feel a certain way about being more dependent on others or needing to open up your life and your home to other providers. There's room to grieve what's changed without giving up on what still matters to you. Therapy can help you navigate the emotional side of living with illness or disability while figuring out what a meaningful life looks like now.

Chronic Pain
Ann Aspnes
Psychologist, PhD, ABPP
In treating chronic pain, I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Chronic Pain (CBT-CP) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you reclaim your quality of life. Together, we focus on concrete pain-coping strategies, including relaxation techniques and mindfulness, to quiet the physical stress response and alter how your brain processes pain signals. We also target distressing thought patterns like catastrophizing—which can amplify physical suffering—replacing them with grounded, empowering perspectives. Using ACT, our ultimate goal shifts from fighting the pain to building a rich, value-driven life alongside it, ensuring that chronic pain no longer dictates your choices, goals, or daily well-being.
