Chronic Pain or Illness
Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
For individuals with invisible chronic illnesses, hiding your pain all the time becomes exhausting. With a chronic health issue, you don’t get to choose when you’re in pain and when you’re not, and as such, I keep my cancellation policy flexible so that I can best support you. There is often a great deal of shame surrounding chronic illness, and significant stigma as well, both from the medical community and society at large. This can lead to depression and anxiety, both medical anxiety and social anxiety. I want to work with you to ensure that your chronic illness does not completely shape your mental health. As someone who suffers from a chronic pain condition, I am understanding and aware of the unique challenges that diagnoses such as fibromyalgia, Ehlers-Danlos, Dysautonomia, arthritis, and cancer have on an individual’s personal, romantic, and professional life. My goal is to help each patient understand and accept these diagnoses and work together to manage both the physical symptoms as well as the mental turmoil that can occur while trying to live life in an able-bodied world.

It is important to address both the mental and physical aspects of these issues, as both impact one another greatly.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Managing chronic pain and illness exhausts many of the social and personal resources we have just to get through the day. Feelings of isolation and being alone in this struggle are insidious and can take away from our ability to remain connected to others and within ourselves. Whether it is not wanting to burden others with our struggle or feelings of hopelessness, people need to know (and feel) that they are valuable enough to continue to be cared for while also provided with space through encouragement that honors our autonomy.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Mindy Ash Hypnosis Centers in Las Vegas and Hypnosis in Henderson Nevada
Hypnotherapist, Clinical Hypnotherapy Instructor, Hypnotherapist, NLP Practitioner, EQ Coach, Master Business Coach, Author
Sometimes physical pain can be psychosomatic because there was an emotional trauma at the time of the injury. Or if we have had major stress in our life it can cause physical pain. Hypnotherapy for pain management can be extremely beneficial. With hypnosis we can minimize or eliminate physical discomfort.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Dr. Lisa C. Watson
Psychologist, PsyD, MPH
In my approach of using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for chronic pain or illness, I start by assessing how pain affects daily life. I educate clients on how thoughts and emotions can intensify pain, teaching them to challenge negative thoughts like catastrophizing. We set achievable goals for activities despite pain and practice relaxation techniques to reduce physical tension. Mindfulness helps manage pain sensations. Homework reinforces skills learned, like relaxation exercises. Regular review ensures we adjust strategies as needed. This personalized approach aims to empower clients in managing chronic pain and improving their quality of life.
