Chronic Pain or Illness
Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Living with chronic pain or illness is not just a physical experience—it impacts your energy, your identity, your relationships, and how you move through daily life. Many people find themselves navigating medical systems that feel dismissive, confusing, or exhausting, while also trying to keep up with responsibilities that don’t adjust to their reality. There can be grief, frustration, isolation, and the ongoing pressure to “push through,” even when your body is asking for something different. Cultural beliefs about health, productivity, and worth can make this even harder, especially when your experience is minimized or not fully understood.
At Nour Counseling, we take your experience seriously. We work with you to understand how chronic pain or illness is affecting you—not just physically, but emotionally and mentally—and help you build ways of coping that are actually sustainable. This might include pacing, boundary-setting, navigating medical interactions, managing uncertainty, and finding ways to stay connected to yourself and your life even within limitations. We also make space for the systemic and cultural factors that shape your experience, so you’re not carrying that context alone. This work is about supporting you in creating a life that feels more manageable, more aligned, and more compassionate toward your body as it is.

Chronic Pain or Illness
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.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Robin Wellington
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-A, RYT-500, CTP, CSTFP
When working with chronic pain or illness, I help clients explore the complex relationship between the body, nervous system, and emotional experience. Living with ongoing physical symptoms can be exhausting and isolating, and therapy offers a supportive space to process these challenges. I integrate mindfulness, nervous system regulation, and mind–body approaches such as EFT (tapping) to help reduce stress reactivity, support the body’s natural healing processes, and cultivate a more compassionate relationship with your body.
