Chronic Pain therapists in Nashville, Tennessee TN

Chronic pain or illness typically has a profound effect on the client's quality of life and adds significant stress to a family system. Clients who present for chronic pain or illness are treated using both CBT and DBT, as any chronic health issue involves the mind/body system as a whole. Some chronic symptoms of unknown origin may be the somatic symptoms of trauma, extreme stress, PTSD, or abuse and may significantly improve by getting to the root and processing the emotional information surrounding the root. With other illness of a chronic nature, therapy will be focused on reframing and challenging the validity of toxic thoughts and developing additional coping mechanisms including mindfulness and self-soothing techniques. Therapy will also focus on breaking the ability of the chronic illness to define the client's identity and their lifestyle, resulting in more personal freedom and fulfillment.
