Frequently Asked Questions About Chronic Illness Counseling

Got questions? We've got answers.

Chronic illness refers to a long-term medical condition that lasts for three months or more. Chronic illness may not have a cure and may require ongoing treatment, management, or adjustments in lifestyle. Chronic illnesses may vary in regards to symptoms, severity, and impact on daily living.

Examples of chronic illness conditions are diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, asthma, chronic pain, and autoimmune disorders. Living with a chronic illness can be difficult and therapy for chronic illness can help reduce stress that exacerbates the chronic illness.

Medical trauma is a form of trauma that stems from experiences within the healthcare system. This trauma may arise from distressing situations such as traumatic medical procedures, distressing diagnoses, or negative interactions with healthcare providers. The result of medical trauma can be symptoms such as anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), or a general fear of medical settings and/or procedures.

Therapy for medical trauma can help facilitate the process of coping and healing.

Counseling for pain management or counseling for chronic pain is a holistic approach that aims to help individuals cope and alleviate chronic pain. Counseling for chronic pain combines psychological strategies with pain management techniques to improve overall well-being. 

Pain management counseling or counseling for chronic pain typically includes strategies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), relaxation techniques, stress management, and mindfulness. These methods can help patients reduce any stress that exacerbates the pain, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and reduce the anxiety and depression often associated with chronic pain.
