Pain treatment
Improve your pain management and reclaim your life
Pain – particularly chronic pain – can significantly affect your quality of life. When you struggle with ongoing pain it doesn’t just affect you physically. You might find that your mental health suffers, your relationships struggle and your emotions are severely impacted. In fact, ongoing pain can be debilitating across the entire spectrum of your life.
Psychological approaches to pain management are part of a strong holistic pain management model. Our clinicians understand that pain is complex, both the causes and the impacts. We’ll help you build tailored treatments, tools and strategies to help you navigate these complexities, improve your pain management and reclaim your life. Our goal is to give you the knowledge and support you need.
Our approach to pain counselling at The Grass Tree Group
Because pain is complex and can affect multiple areas of your life, it often takes a multi-disciplinary approach to treat it well. Our pain management specialists work with you to understand the causes and impacts of your pain. We then create a comprehensive, tailored approach to your pain management that takes each of these elements into account and addresses both the physical and psychological aspects of pain.
In our sessions, we’ll use various therapeutic techniques to manage pain perception and reduce stress related to pain. We’ll also help you with tools and methods for emotional regulation and resilience, aimed at improving your daily functioning. Together we’ll get you on the path to a happier, more fulfilling life.
