Are you struggling with chronic pain that medical practitioners haven't been able to resolve? Have you explored countless approaches and consulted numerous specialists without finding relief for your unexplained symptoms? It's common to discover that viewing pain solely through a medical or physical lens isn't enough. If you've found yourself here, you may have realized that a different approach is needed. As a chronic pain therapist in Los Angeles, I specialize in treating chronic pain from a mind-body perspective. This approach can help reduce the fear associated with pain and, ultimately, diminish the pain itself.

As a pain psychologist in California, I utilize evidence-based practices, including Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help folks recover from chronic pain. I have the most advanced level (mastery) training in PRT from the Pain Reprocessing Therapy Center. Together, we address neuroplastic or primary pain symptoms with proven strategies.

Understanding pain science through psychoeducation is a critical part of our work together. By reinterpreting pain as a danger signal, we can manage, reduce, and even eliminate chronic issues such as:

• Persistent back pain or post-surgery pain

• Neck pain

• Headaches and migraines

• Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

• Chronic joint pain and carpal tunnel

• Inconsistent symptoms like tingling, numbness, cramping, and tightness

• Unexplained physical symptoms with no medical diagnosis (negative tests but continued pain)

• Pain from past surgeries or injuries

• Medication-resistant pain

• Chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia

If you're looking for a pain psychologist or chronic pain therapist in Los Angeles, I'm here to help you on your journey to relief.
