How do we help?
We focus on teaching you about your body, your nervous system, and how your brain works. You can understand exactly how to improve your health – both emotional and physical. Because it’s all health.
When someone suggests “stress management” – they are talking about improving your physical health and wellbeing. Our body is connected by nerves, and our brain is the control center, driving our nerves. And our nervous systems are constantly going – causing physical wear and tear on our bodies. Learning how to achieve a physiological balance improves cardiac health, disease management, and overall well being.
Peace Out Pain is experienced in integrating CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy), MSC (mindfulness-self compassion), and more with your values and interests to create a therapy style just for you.
We offer virtual and in-person visits and aim to fit our work into your busy life. We focus on what you need now to get you back to living the way you want. Drawing from a variety of therapy approaches, we bring the best of psychological science, neuroscience, and pragmatism to help you focus on what’s important to you.
We get it. It’s hard to find time for yourself.
And you need it.
For your health—physical and mental health.
