Chronic Pain

The balloons have deflated-
The flowers have dried up-
People have stopped visiting-
No one wants to hear about it anymore-
You’ve worn out your friends and family-

Welcome to the world of chronic pain and chronic conditions.

Those that have given you a shoulder to cry on or an ear to unload your frustration on often give advice, advice that you have explored before. Everyone wants to “fix it”. You are disappointed that you are not getting better. You feel helpless and hopeless and illness support groups end up making you feel depressed. These patients often get left behind by doctor’s who have exercised their talents. Misdiagnosis is common, unanswered questions and built up frustration is a daily occurrence.

Now imagine home visits by a qualified psychotherapist who understands your overwhelm, your loneliness, and your disappointment with your body that is betraying you.

Together we will work with the mind/body connection. We will develop meditations and visualization to address your pain. We will work at your pace to find a sense of appreciation for what IS. Learn to become more mindful of your strengths and develop new ways of growing your interests.

You have a partner in me. One who lives a happy life with chronic pain and conditions and will tell you everything I have learned these past 25 years to help myself and others.
“We did not create the pain that binds us,
But we can control the attitude we have about it “

I have also started a support group on this topic.Call:310-291-9104
