Chronic Pain

Dr. Weston Donaldson

Psychologist, PhD, ABPP

When your health changes, it's not just your body that has to adjust. You may lose energy, independence, spontaneity, or the ability to do things you once took for granted. Plans become harder to make, relationships may shift, and the future you imagined might suddenly look different. You may be frustrated with your body, tired of explaining yourself, or feeling guilty about what you can no longer do. When you're LGBTQ+, you may feel a certain way about being more dependent on others or needing to open up your life and your home to other providers. There's room to grieve what's changed without giving up on what still matters to you. Therapy can help you navigate the emotional side of living with illness or disability while figuring out what a meaningful life looks like now.

Chronic Pain

Elisha S Lee

Counselor/Therapist, NCCA CTCC CPC

Our counseling services for chronic pain or illness offer a supportive sanctuary for individuals navigating the complexities and challenges of living with long-term health conditions. Understanding that chronic pain and illness affect not just the body but also the mind and spirit, we provide empathetic, holistic care designed to improve quality of life, enhance coping strategies, and foster resilience and hope. Compassionate Support for Managing Chronic Conditions * Holistic Approach: We recognize that chronic pain and illness can touch every aspect of life—physical, emotional, and social. Our strategies are comprehensive, addressing not just the symptoms but the whole person. * Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT): CBT is particularly effective in helping clients manage the impacts of living with chronic conditions, such as coping with pain, dealing with anxiety or depression, and adjusting lifestyle changes. * Mindfulness and Relaxation Techniques: Incorporating mindfulness, meditation, and relaxation techniques can aid in reducing the stress response, which is often exacerbated in chronic conditions, and can help manage pain levels more effectively. * Pain Management Education: We provide education on pain management techniques and the relationship between emotional states and physical pain, empowering clients with knowledge and tools to better control their symptoms. * Support Groups: Facilitating access to support groups and community resources, allowing clients to connect with others who share similar experiences, fostering a sense of belonging and mutual support. Goals of Counseling for Chronic Pain or Illness Our aims in providing counseling for chronic pain or illness include: * Enhanced Quality of Life: Support clients in finding joy and satisfaction in life despite the challenges of their condition. * Effective Coping Strategies: Develop and reinforce coping mechanisms for dealing with both the physical symptoms and emotional stress of chronic conditions. * Emotional Resilience: Foster emotional resilience, helping clients to adjust to their situation, deal with feelings of grief or loss, and cultivate a hopeful, positive outlook. * Improved Self-Care: Encourage practices and routines that promote physical health, mental wellbeing, and self-compassion. * Strengthened Autonomy: Empower individuals to take control over their lives and make informed decisions about their care, reinforcing their sense of autonomy and independence. Living with chronic pain or illness is a significant challenge, but it doesn’t have to define your life. Our counseling services aim to provide a nurturing space where you can find the support, strategies, and strength to navigate your journey with dignity, courage, and hope. Reach out to us, and let’s work together toward a future where your condition is a part of your life, not the entirety of it.

Chronic Pain

Dr. Amy Karbasi

Psychologist, PsyD

I specialize in therapy for adults living with chronic pain or chronic illness, including persistent pain, fatigue, and complex or invisible health conditions. I understand that living with ongoing symptoms can affect much more than physical functioning, often influencing mood, relationships, sleep, identity, and the ability to participate in everyday life. My work integrates evidence-based psychological approaches with an understanding of the connection between the brain, nervous system, emotions, behavior, and physical symptoms, helping you develop effective ways to respond to your symptoms while building a meaningful life.
