Chronic pain is a long-term condition that persists for months or even years after an injury or illness has healed. While chronic pain can start from a variety of sources, some common causes include arthritis, fibromyalgia, migraines, lower back problems, shingles, cancer treatment side effects, and diabetes-related nerve damage. Tending to chronic pain requires a different approach than tending to acute (short-term) pain; often this includes a combination of physical therapies like massage therapy combined with mental health counseling to help the patient effectively cope with their condition.
Mental health counselors are trained professionals who specialize in helping people find ways to cope with difficult emotions associated with chronic pain. They will evaluate the individual’s situation and develop customized plans that best meet their needs. These plans may involve cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), relaxation techniques such as mindfulness meditation, hypnosis/hypnotherapy sessions, lifestyle changes such as changes in diet or exercise routines, or a combination of all of these approaches tailored specifically for the individual’s needs. By blending traditional counseling techniques with alternative therapies like yoga or tai chi classes, these mental health counselors can provide personalized help that addresses both the body and mind simultaneously.
