Chronic Pain or Illness
Alex Conway
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
I specialize in supporting individuals within the LGBTQ+ community who are living with chronic pain. Understanding the unique challenges and complexities of managing chronic pain while navigating identity-related stressors, I provide a compassionate and affirming space to explore your experiences. Together, we'll work to develop personalized strategies to manage pain, improve quality of life, and promote overall well-being. Using evidence-based techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and pain management strategies, we'll address the physical, emotional, and psychological aspects of chronic pain. My goal is to empower you to regain control over your life, find meaning and joy, and thrive despite the challenges of chronic pain. Let's embark on a journey towards greater comfort, resilience, and vitality together.

Alisa Lindenbaum
Art Therapist, MPS, ATR-BC, LCAT, LPAT
Chronic pain and/or chronic illness can profoundly effect every single aspect of life and result in feelings of isolation, hopelessness and helplessness. The mind and the body are intricately connected, and you can become caught up in a vicious cycle of physical and emotional pain. While a great psychotherapy experience cannot "cure" chronic pain and illness, it can very strongly lead to substantial improvements in being able to manage and improve physical symptoms and also reconnecting to the person that you used to be. There is a good deal of research highlighting how the addition of the creative arts process can support the chronic illness sufferer in both reducing physical symptoms and improving their quality of life.
