Over the last eight years, I've helped hundreds of clients reduce or overcome chronic pain through mind-body therapy. Mind-body therapy is for people who discover that their pain may be caused by the brain's neural pathways, rather than physical damage to the body. This type of pain is known as neuroplastic pain—where the brain has learned to keep signaling pain, even without structural damage.
If you relate to any of the following, you may be a candidate for this type of therapy:
You’ve noticed your pain started during a stressful period in your life.
Doctors haven’t found any clear structural issues, or the diagnosis you’ve received doesn’t quite feel right.
Your pain seems to shift around—sometimes it’s in one area, other times it’s elsewhere.
Your pain is more intense when you're stressed but lessens when you’re relaxed.
You’ve had an injury that hasn’t healed after six months or more.
You tend to be perfectionistic, putting a lot of pressure on yourself, both mentally and physically.
I was trained at the Pain Psychology Center in Los Angeles, CA, where I studied under leading experts in the field, including Alan Gordon, Christie Uipi, and Daniel Lyman. Their expertise has shaped my approach to helping clients navigate and overcome chronic pain.
I’ve successfully helped clients reduce or eliminate symptoms such as:
Musculoskeletal pain (e.g., back, neck, knee, hip, foot, and hand pain)
Headaches and migraines
Pelvic pain and bladder issues
Digestive issues like IBS and gastrointestinal discomfort
Chronic conditions such as fibromyalgia and dizziness
I’m trained in Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotional Awareness and Expression Therapy (EAET), Problem-Solving Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing.
