Tracy L. Morris
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS LMFT
I worked to meet the needs of people with HIV before medical therapies made it a chronic (rather than terminal) illness. Depending on the nature of the clients' pain, I may refer to and work collaboratively with their other health providers to address the holistic related needs.

Weston Pew
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC, LCPC
Navigating chronic pain or illness, whether it's yourself or a loved one, can feel overwhelming. Fear, uncertainty, and endless questions about treatment and the future haunt you and keep you up at night. As someone who has personally faced this challenge and supported others through it, I offer a holistic approach to healing that addresses the mind, heart, body, and soul. My work integrates Narrative Therapy to reframe your journey, Internal Family Systems (IFS) to foster self-compassion, Somatic Therapy to release tension and reconnect with your body, and Existential/Spiritual Inquiry to explore deeper meanings. Together, we’ll build emotional resilience, provide clarity, and help you reclaim a sense of agency, so you can move forward with purpose and grace. Reach out for a free consultation, and let’s explore a personalized approach to support your healing.

Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
Typically, Chronic Pain Syndrome patients come to see a psychologist after being seen by a number of other health professionals to no avail, including internal medicine physicians, orthopedists, surgeons, orthopedic surgeons, neurosurgeons, physical therapists, chiropractors, acupuncturists, emergency room doctors (for late-night injections of powerful pain killing drugs) and others. Typically, a Chronic Pain evaluation consists of several approaches to discovering which factors play the largest role in maintaining the pain. We ask patients to keep a Pain Diary for a week or two, which helps us pinpoint which activities or emotional states are related to an increase in pain level. This also helps us observe how they are actually taking their medications. We may also perform psychological testing to determine any underlying causes of depression or anxiety which should be treated in addition to the Chronic Pain and which could be helping to maintain it. At least one Family Session is held to explore whether there have been unconscious payoffs within the family for being in pain.
