The Biopsychosocial Approach to chronic pain recovery
For chronic pain, chronic symptoms, and chronic fatigue
Based in Ireland, supporting clients online worldwide.
Our approach
The biopsychosocial
approach to healing
There is new help for chronic pain sufferers, and for people with medically unexplained diagnoses such as IBS, long covid, chronic fatigue, migraines, anxiety, and depression. If you've seen several medical professionals and are still not getting better, you may benefit from this approach. I work with people of all ages on recovery-oriented, evidence-informed support.

Real stories from clients
A few words from people I've worked with.
She is very kind and understanding and has made me feel completely at ease from our first session. The things she has taught me so far have made a difference in how I react to my symptoms and how confident I am that I will recover fully with time.
Marsha is very kind, empathetic, patient, and supportive. I'm still on my recovery journey, but I feel more hopeful and confident about the future because of the work we've done and will continue to do together.
I recently started working with Marsha and, although it is still early days, I am starting to notice reductions in my pain levels and occasional pain-free days. I am fascinated by how "easy" this process feels, and yet I am getting great results!
The science
What causes
chronic pain?
Chronic pain isn't always caused by ongoing injury. Many long-lasting pain conditions come from learned neural pathways in the brain, patterns that continue to fire even after the body has healed.
All pain is real, and it starts in the brain
95% of brain function is unconscious, constantly interpreting signals to determine safety or danger. Pain originates here, not in imagined injury.
Book a ConsultationSignals that won't switch off
Warning signals can persist long after healing, creating a cycle of chronic pain. Physical symptoms are the language between your unconscious and conscious brain, and that language can be retrained.

Pain Reprocessing Therapy
PRT helps retrain the brain to turn off misfiring pain signals, especially where pain lingers long after an injury has healed, or where stress and unprocessed emotions are driving the cycle.
The good news
Turning off these signals is safe, and possible. Just as your brain learned these pain patterns, it can unlearn them. Neuroplasticity works both ways, and that is exactly what this approach harnesses.
