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
Reginald K. Riggins
Psychologist, PhD
Chronic pain is a condition that affects multiple aspects of a person's life and can exacerbate both depression and anxiety symptoms. I use cognitive-behavioral therapy for chronic pain to improve one's quality of life by accepting the reality of having pain in your life and learning how to move forward it. In addition, a client will learn several relaxation and cognitive skills to reduce and manage the pain as best as possible in conjunction with your current medical treatment plan.

Chronic Pain
Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
You’ve been told it’s “just stress,” that “your labs look fine,” or that maybe it’s “all in your head.” But deep down, you know something’s not right. Living with chronic pain or illness—especially when it’s invisible to others—can feel both physically exhausting and emotionally isolating. Maybe you’re grieving the life you once had, constantly justifying your experience to people who don’t understand, or quietly wondering if you’re just supposed to push through. Dr. Jenny Shields offers something different: a space where you don’t have to prove your pain to be taken seriously.
With warmth, respect, and clinical expertise, Dr. Shields works with people navigating the complex realities of illness—whether you’ve recently received a diagnosis, are stuck in a cycle of uncertainty, or have been managing symptoms for years. Drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness-based tools, and trauma-informed care, she helps you move through grief, frustration, and fear with compassion. Together, you’ll explore how to live a meaningful life in a body that doesn’t always cooperate—on your own terms.
