Chronic Pain or Illness
Julie Willsie
Registered Psychotherapist, BSc, MACP; Registered Psychotherapist
I have worked for over 25 years with clients injured in life-altering motor vehicle accidents. The chronic pain associated with traumatic injury or illness can affect our relationships, family dynamics, ability to maintain work, increase financial stress and reduce our abilities to function in society. My focus is to learn your goals and interests, to try to find ways to cope and move forward for a more productive and satisfying life again.

Cayla Townes, Memento Psychotherapy & Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC
Adjusting to new limitations can be difficult. A change in health, whether sudden or gradual, can be disorienting and frustrating. There can be so much grief tied up in changes to our health. No longer having the ability to do the activities we enjoy and having to change our plans for the future are just two of the many ways grief can impact our ability to adjust to chronic pain or illness. I work with people who are experiencing chronic pain, disability, or illness and the caregivers who support them to continue to live meaningful, connected lives.
