Chronic Pain
Leigh Ann Lichty | INNER FLOW Counseling & Art Therapy, LLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, ATR-BC
Chronic pain and illness takes over your life. It causes life to take a complete turn. Navigating the medical system doesn't make things any easier. It is so hard to advocate for yourself with medical professionals when you don't feel comfortable in your own body. Managing chronic pain and illness is a many-layered struggle, which can include deep emotions, persistent negative self-concept, challenges with support system, financial strain, grief, identity changes, and trauma. I have navigated chronic illness myself and have experience supporting Clients on the same path. I am here for you!

Chronic Pain
Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies
Psychologist, Ed.D., ABPP
Chronic Pain whether caused by accidents, injuries, diseases, aging and emotional factors robs us of opportunities for happiness and fulfillment and often impacts every aspect of our lives. I offer clients a comprehensive approach to reduce and manage pain incorporating strategies like cognitive behavior therapy, hypnosis, EMDR, mindfulness, exercise, and nutritional guidance. As a chronic back pain sufferer myself for many years, I have learned about the causes of pain and the wide variety of tools that can be used to cope, reduce and in some cases eliminate it all together. Sometimes, working with other health professionals in an inter-disciplinary manner offers the best combination of treatment. During out time together we will discuss, evaluate and decide together what might work best for you.

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.
