Chronic pain hurts more than your body: its impact may affect your mood, your memory, your relationships, your self-esteem and your overall quality of life… leaving your whole system overwhelmed.
Has chronic pain diminished your concentration, memory, critical thinking abilities, productivity or mood (have you ever felt paingry?)
Has chronic pain made you feel lonely, isolated, as if no one really understands…Have your relationships been challenged by frustration, resentment, and communication breakdowns because of chronic pain?
When you hurt all the time, has it been impossible to complete household chores, manage finances, take care of your loved ones, contribute financially, or fully participate in your life?
Even low grade chronic pain can be exhausting… Has the cycle of pain, sleep disturbance, exhaustion, resulted in a drain on your motivation and ability for self-care?
If you answered yes to any of the questions above please contact me for an appointment. Mental health and chronic pain are fundamentally connected. We can work together to better understand your pain, gather the right team of professionals, and build a workable plan.
