Episode Description

If you're using a mind-body approach to heal your chronic pain/symptoms, the right therapist is a game-changer.

Tanner sits down with fellow chronic pain psychotherapist, Paul LePointe, to discuss different therapy approaches and styles. Tanner and Paul discuss their practice, help you understand your options, and provide practical ideas on how to find the right therapist for you.

Tanner and Paul both experienced chronic, debilitating neuroplastic pain - and recovered! They now provide 1-on-1 therapy at Pain Psychotherapy Canada.

Tanner and Paul explore:

  • Key questions to ask when you're consulting with a potential new therapist
  • How therapist style and approach differences can shape outcomes
  • Why people can still feel stuck, even with a skilled therapist

Tanner Murtagh and Anne Hampson are therapists who treat neuroplastic pain and mind-body symptoms. They are also married!

In his 20s, Tanner overcame chronic pain and a fibromyalgia diagnosis by learning his symptoms were neuroplastic, not structural. Post-healing, Tanner and Anne have dedicated their lives to developing effective treatment and education for neuroplastic pain and symptoms.

Listen and learn how to assess your own chronic pain and symptoms, gain tools to retrain the brain and nervous system, and make changes in your life and health!
