I specialize in chronic pain and perinatal mental health.
Life can feel overwhelming and difficult to navigate at times. The thoughts that consume your day, feeling hopeless that the pain will never go away, and the uncertainty of how to transition through this period can make you feel stuck. My goal is to help you gain insight and awareness along with learn new strategies and coping skills to navigate through these difficult times. I also understand how important it is to provide an environment where you feel heard, supported, and understood in order to facilitate these changes and feel confident in applying these techniques within your life.

Sleep troubles, Trauma, Chronic Pain, Anxiety or Depression negatively impacting your life? I believe clients are the expert of themselves. I have additional tools through training and experience to be part of a team approach with a client in the process of recovering from Insomnia, traumatic event(s) and other issues, in a relatively short amount of time when compared to typical therapies. Evidence-Based Therapy may be of interest to you because the rigorously researched therapy has shown to have consistent outcomes, tends to be less sessions than standard supportive therapy, which can be more cost-effective since less visits.

There are many times in our lives where we recognize that our behaviors and beliefs may not be serving our current life path. In fact, we may recognize that those behaviors we used to protect ourselves are holding us back from truly living the life we want and deserve. I primarily work with adults who need support around: anxiety, gender identity, sexuality, perfectionism, compassion fatigue, grief, and chronic illness.

Despite having stressful experiences, you are high-functioning. You go to work, you pay your bills, you have meaningful relationships, and on paper, you seem 'fine' from the outside. Inside, you are thinking of the worst case scenario or experiencing an overwhelming amount of thoughts and feelings that "just won't go away". You don't feel great, have unprocessed trauma, and you want to start feeling better. You want to move beyond tolerating trauma and stress, and feel good emotionally and physically.

Life isn't easy. Seeking therapy takes courage; You are not alone. Most experience anxiety, depression, grief, (and more), while feeling overwhelmed with a mind that likes to overthink and beat you up in the process. Most have traded a fulfilling life for one that it filled with hours of social media, TV, or just feeling trapped. Often times you may find yourself turning to substances or food as a temporary fix. If you are feeling STUCK and don't know what to do next, I am the therapist for you. I work well with those who have not had success with therapy in the past and those new to therapy, needing a good first experience.

Chronic Pain Therapists

How does chronic pain therapy work?

Engaging with a psychotherapist to help treat chronic pain does not mean that one’s pain is all in their head. Therapy for chronic-pain patients has been shown to benefit both the mind and the body, targeting physical symptoms and increasing daily functioning. In other words, for many, addressing their emotional health through therapy affects their physical health. A therapist can help a client challenge unhelpful thoughts about pain and develop new ways to respond to it, such as distraction or calming breathing techniques. Studies have found that therapy can be as effective as surgery for certain cases of chronic pain and many doctors recommend trying psychotherapy in advance of considering invasive surgery.

What are the most effective treatment options for chronic pain?

Stress, anxiety, depression, catastrophizing, ruminating, lack of activity, and social withdrawal all make chronic pain worse. Addressing these issues, research shows, can help people gain control over their pain symptoms. Therapeutic approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, biofeedback, and mindfulness-based stress reduction, along with greater pain-management education, have been found to help people reduce fear and disability.

Are there new treatments for chronic pain?

Many cases of chronic pain, particularly those involving back pain, remain medically unexplained. But there is evidence that changes in the brain or nervous system are caused by previous physical ailments such as tissue damage; in such cases, the brain may continue to send out pain signals despite the physical cause having healed. To aid patients under these circumstances, a recently developed treatment known as pain reprocessing therapy (PRT) is designed to help the brain “unlearn” this response. A PRT practitioner helps individuals to reduce the “threat value” of their ongoing pain signals until they can reappraise them as less threatening and fear-inducing. They also help an individual to develop new emotional regulation skills.

How long does therapy for chronic pain take?

There is no set timeline for recovery from chronic pain, especially as there may be a range of physical and psychological causes for any individual’s discomfort, but most patients should expect to see a therapist for a number of weeks or months, typically spanning at least 12 sessions. Studies of pain reprocessing therapy found that many individuals’ experience of pain lessened in eight sessions over four weeks.
