Chronic Illness & Pain Management
Mental health care for chronic illness and pain
Mental Health Support for Life with Chronic Illness
Chronic illness isn’t just about symptoms, it’s about living with the constant push and pull between what your body needs and what life demands. At Healix, we offer care that recognizes the full scope of that experience. Through therapy, we help you navigate the emotional weight of ongoing health challenges, build resilience, and reconnect with a sense of self beyond the diagnosis.
What We Work On
Therapy for chronic illness goes beyond coping, it’s about helping you feel more in control, even when your health feels unpredictable. At Healix, we support you in:
- Making sense of the emotional impact of diagnosis and ongoing symptoms
- Developing strategies to manage fatigue, pain, and overwhelm
- Exploring how illness can shift your sense of identity
- Navigating relationship dynamics affected by health changes
- Creating routines that support both emotional and physical resilience
Our Approach
Our approach is flexible and grounded in what works for you. We draw on mindfulness, self-compassion, and strength-based strategies to help ease emotional strain and support resilience. When helpful, we also incorporate trauma-informed and somatic practices to address how your body holds stress. Therapy isn’t about pushing through, it’s about having a space to slow down, process, and move forward in a way that feels sustainable.
You’re more than your diagnosis
Our virtual sessions are designed with flexibility in mind, supporting a range of needs, from limited mobility to fluctuating energy. Whether you’re just beginning your health journey or have been managing your condition for years, you don’t have to do it alone. We’re here to meet you where you are.
