Pain Management
Persistent pain affects mood, energy, and quality of life. Therapy helps build emotional resilience, reduce stress responses, and develop healthier ways to navigate chronic pain.
Overview
Pain management addresses chronic or recurrent physical pain—such as migraines, nerve pain, back pain, or fibromyalgia—and its psychological impact. Pain influences mood, sleep, work, and relationships, creating a cycle of emotional distress and physical discomfort.
Symptoms

Fatigue or low energy
Irritability or mood swings
Anxiety about pain episodes
Sleep disturbances
Depression linked with long-term discomfort
Causes
Injury or surgery
Chronic illnesses (arthritis, neuropathy, migraines)
Muscle tension caused by stress
Nerve damage
Poor posture or repetitive strain
Emotional distress amplifying physical pain
How Therapy Can Help
CBT for pain perception
Biofeedback & relaxation training
Physiotherapy or occupational therapy
Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR)
Lifestyle changes (movement, balanced rest, routine)
Medication management under supervision
Emotional support to break the pain-stress cycle
