What Is Chronic Illness & Chronic Pain Therapy?

Chronic illness and chronic pain therapy focuses on the emotional, psychological, and relational impact of living with ongoing health conditions.

While therapy does not replace medical treatment, it can help you process difficult emotions, develop coping skills, improve self-advocacy, and adjust to the realities of living with chronic symptoms. Many individuals also find therapy helpful when navigating medical trauma, severe food allergies, autoimmune conditions, chronic pain disorders, and newly diagnosed health concerns.
