Counseling for Chronic Pain

Chronic pain is a very difficult reality for many individuals living in our society today. It can often stimulate isolation and feelings of depression, anxiety, grief and loss. At Harvest Moon Awakenings we use a combination of psychotherapy and holistic interventions such as mindfulness, health coaching, and Emotional Freedom Technique which help individuals process, release, and generate healing around chronic pain, illness, or autoimmune disease.

Why Counseling for Chronic Pain?

Chronic pain is an emotional condition as well as a physical sensation. It is complex in that it affects our mood, thought forms, and daily behaviors. For many, it may stimulate feelings of deep loss, anxiety, depression, and create isolation from those most close to us.  At Harvest Moon Awakenings we use a holistic approach towards talk therapy integrating the health of your physical, emotional, and mental selves. We use alternative approaches such as Emotional Freedom Technique, health coaching strategies, mindfulness, meditation exercises, and energy work to support clients in learning new ways to relate to their emotional body, so that their physical body can respond in positive and transformative ways.

Meg’s Journey

Meg has a very personal and intimate relationship with chronic pain as she was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis at the age of twenty, and has experienced debilitating joint pain for many years of her life. Meg has lessened her symptoms drastically by using alternative techniques, changing her diet, and engaging in talk therapy on a regular basis. Meg has been trained in many of the modalities which have made such a profound impact on her life. She is very passionate about working with adolescents and adults who also experience chronic pain, illness, and/or autoimmune disorders.
