The Chronic Illness Therapists

  • Summary

  • Disrupting the mental health and medical system for people with chronic, invisible illnesses. We will no longer accept lack of answers, empathy, and guidance from the professionals we are told to trust. It’s not in your head, you are not a burden, and we’ll prove that to you one episode at a time. I'm an Atlanta-based mental health therapist specializing in chronic pain / invisible illnesses. This podcast is for educational and insight purposes only and should not be used as a replacement for mental health treatment. Always seek medical advice before making changes to your health regimens.

  • Ep 64: Calming the Bear: A Guide to Easing Your Pain w/ Jason Therrien DPT
    Jun 25 2024

    Chronic pain can feel like a raging bear inside you. It's loud, scary, and all-consuming. But what if there was a way to calm the bear and find some peace?

    In this conversation, Jason Therrien and Destiny Winters explore the concept of pain as a complex experience, influenced by physical, emotional, and psychological factors.

    Jason is a Doctor of Physical Therapy, Certified Therapeutic Pain Specialist and Certified Health and Well-being Coach, and Destiny Winters is a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Rehabilitation Counselor.

    They discuss a different approach to chronic pain management – moving away from the traditional "find-and-fix" mentality and instead, highlight the importance of understanding your pain, rather than just getting rid of it without real awareness first.
