Chronic Pain
Ann Aspnes
Psychologist, PhD, ABPP
In treating chronic pain, I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Chronic Pain (CBT-CP) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you reclaim your quality of life. Together, we focus on concrete pain-coping strategies, including relaxation techniques and mindfulness, to quiet the physical stress response and alter how your brain processes pain signals. We also target distressing thought patterns like catastrophizing—which can amplify physical suffering—replacing them with grounded, empowering perspectives. Using ACT, our ultimate goal shifts from fighting the pain to building a rich, value-driven life alongside it, ensuring that chronic pain no longer dictates your choices, goals, or daily well-being.

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
MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
I have made Chronic Illness and Pain a specialty in my practice and I have trained with some of the leading experts in that area. I have worked with many chronic pain sufferers, often eliminating all their pain even when it has been a long standing problem. As far as illnesses go, I have been able to eliminate all the symptoms of a client who was suffering from Progressive Supranuclear Palsy, a degenerative neurological condition related to ALS or Lou Gehrigs disease. When I first met him, he had been degenerating for 12 years, was confined to a wheelchair, could no longer speak, drooled constantly, suffered from tremors and repetitive movements, inability to sleep and he lacked motivation to do his physical therapy, the only treatment doctors could offer him. With no treatment or drugs for his condition, doctors expected him to die soon most likely from choking as he lost control of his swallowing. After one session, we stopped the tremors and repetitive movements, got him to sleep more soundly and do his PT. After a second session he was able to speak again and walk again. After 5 sessions one couldn't even tell he was sick and now 6 years later he is still gardening, walking his dog, hiking in the mountains. Soon after I worked with a gentleman who had developed an adult onset form of Muscular Dystrophy called Myotonic Dystrophy. Only 45 years old, he suffered from severe chronic fatigue, finding himself unable to get out of bed in the morning, taking hours to stand up. He had muscular pain and rigidity, painful joints and various digestive issues. The morning after our first session, he woke up full of energy and jumped out of bed. After a few more sessions we eliminated all his physical symptoms as well as clearing several emotional issues that had plagued him his whole life. Recently he contacted me to update me and report his still feeling good. I have also worked with clients with MS and Parkinsons> This past year I trained and certified in treating IBS and other gut conditions, learning a protocol which is considered the most effective treatment for these issues. I have also trained and certified in Hypno-Oncology, enabling me to support patients on their Cancer journey to deal with pain, anxiety, and the effects of treatment such as nausea. Recently, I worked with a woman with stage 4 lung Cancer. Her only hope was a new experimental protocol that involved a long needle inserted into the stomach. She had a lifelong needle phobia and was terrified. After the first grueling treatment she came home and cried and vomited for 3 days. After one session she went in for her second treatment and she was able to laugh and sing show tunes with the nurses throughout the treatment, felt no pain and went home calm and relaxed.
