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.

Alicia Townsend
Psychologist, PhD, BCN
With a PhD in Health Psychology and 20 years of practice in the field, I have clinically-proven skills to help manage many physical issues such as chronic pain, migraines, tension headaches, dysautonomia, Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), sport injury and recovery, and other chronic illnesses. It is important to address both the mental and physical aspects of these issues, as both impact one another greatly.

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.
