Chronic Pain or Illness
Dr Ian Anderson
Psychologist, Consultant Clinical Psychologist (HCPC registered), PhD, MSc, MSc, MSc, MA (Econ), BA (Econ) Hons
My question is if you break your leg, where is the pain? Actually, it's in your mind. The nerve receptors around the injury send messages to your brain, and your brain sends out pain messages. I really do not mean this to be facile, but all pain is interpreted by the mind. Even though pain is a real physical event, competent psychological therapy can help you process pain in such a way that you can still live your life in the way you would wish.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Ulrike Nau-Debor
Psychologist, CPsychol, AFBPsS, HCPC registered
At my practice, I specialise in supporting clients with autoimmune diseases, addressing the unique psychological challenges they face.
Experiencing the early symptoms of an autoimmune disorder can be distressing, especially when diagnosis takes time and initial symptoms are often dismissed by medical professionals. This journey can leave individuals feeling unheard and invalidated, adding to their emotional burden. Once diagnosed, clients often grapple with the grief and trauma associated with their condition.
Living with an autoimmune disorder means managing not only the physical symptoms but also the psychological impact. Chronic pain and illness can take a significant toll on mental health, making it essential to find effective coping strategies. Our work together focuses on addressing this trauma, both from the diagnosis and the ongoing symptoms.
We also explore how adapted behaviors might inadvertently worsen the condition, aiming to develop healthier patterns that support well-being. For many, potential childhood trauma can intersect with their current health challenges, and we work to untangle these complex layers.
My goal is to create a supportive and understanding environment where you feel heard and empowered. By addressing both the emotional and physical aspects of autoimmune diseases, I strive to help you lead fuller, more resilient lives.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Louise Perry
Therapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
Living with chronic pain can be exhausting, isolating, and overwhelming. It’s not just the physical discomfort—it’s the emotional toll, the frustration of feeling misunderstood, and the challenge of finding ways to live fully despite the pain. My personal journey with these struggles has deeply shaped my approach as a psychotherapist, giving me insight into the resilience it takes to navigate life with ongoing physical challenges.
I bring this understanding to my work, alongside professional training in Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS). My goal is to create a safe and supportive space where you can explore the emotional impact of chronic pain, reconnect with your inner resources, and find ways to build a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling.
Therapy with me is adaptable to your needs and energy levels. Whether through talking, creative expression, or a combination of both, we’ll work together at your pace to address the unique challenges you face. Compassionate, non-judgmental, and deeply committed, I am here to help you process your experience and uncover new possibilities for growth, connection, and healing.

Greta Cowles Consulting
Life Coach, LMFT, SEP, PIT, Trauma Stress Studies
Somatic therapies resolve chronic pain and illness through neural pathway reorganization. This is not exposure therapy, but rather a gentle way to resolve and process real physical pain.
