Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT)
Chronic pain can take away your ability to enjoy life, and it’s often made worse by a brain that’s stuck on high alert, misreading the body’s signals as danger. This pain is real, not imagined and together, we can help your brain unlearn it.
Understanding Your Pain
Together, we’ll explore how the brain processes pain signals and why chronic pain can persist even after the body has healed. Understanding this connection is often the first step toward relief.
Building a Sense of Safety
I’ll support you in learning to attend to pain sensations, and the stress and emotions tied to them, from a place of safety rather than fear helping your nervous system recognize there’s no threat.
Reclaiming Movement and Joy
Using the brain’s natural neuroplasticity, we’ll work toward retraining how your body responds to pain, encouraging movement and the activities that bring you joy.
Frequently Asked Questions
Taking the step to begin therapy is a personal one, and it’s perfectly normal to feel uncertain at first. Therapy can be incredibly helpful, whether you’re dealing with specific challenges or simply want to feel more at peace in your day-to-day life.
Starting therapy doesn’t mean you have to have everything figured out. It’s about finding someone to support you as you navigate life’s challenges, helping you learn about yourself, and empowering you to create the changes you seek. If any of this resonates, therapy might just be the right step for you.
During your first full session, we’ll take the time to explore your story and understand your needs and goals. You’ll have the space to share as much or as little as you feel ready to. The focus will be on creating a safe, supportive environment where we can collaboratively explore your goals and challenges.
Our session will flow naturally, guided by your needs and comfort, while I introduce my therapeutic approach. I’m here to provide a supportive space where you can find clarity, begin healing, and openly process your emotions.
A typical therapy session lasts about 50 minutes. This time is dedicated entirely to you providing a safe, supportive space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and goals. Each session is structured to ensure you feel heard and understood while making meaningful progress at your own pace.
The cost for each 50-minute therapy session is $170. A sliding scale option is available for those who may need it, ensuring that support remains accessible. If you’re unsure about starting therapy, you can begin with a free 15-minute consultation to explore if it feels like the right fit.
