Do you live with chronic pain?

PRT is an evidence-based treatment for chronic pain. The theory underlying the treatment is that chronic pain is one way the brain responds to threats. Through PRT, we retrain the brain to feel safe, reducing pain whether or not there’s an underlying injury.

In a 2021 study published in JAMA Psychiatry, 66% of people with long-term back pain that had no clear physical cause were pain-free or nearly pain-free after four weeks of PRT, compared with 20% of people who got a placebo treatment. Most still felt that relief a year later.

EMDR is also very effective in treating chronic pain, among other benefits, and, as an EMDRIA-approved therapist, I have paired it with PRT to great benefit.

I’ll work with you to understand the threats in your life and how your body responds so that you can feel safe in your body and your life.
