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 hosts a solo episode, sharing a free somatic tracking practice from the MBody Community digital course.

Tanner first explains how chronic pain and symptoms can be neuroplastic (caused by the brain, not the body). He then breaks down the sensitization cycle - the feedback loop that makes symptoms sustain and worsen. Tanner provides practical instructions on the how to use somatic tracking to retrain your brain and desensitize pain/symptoms.

The episode includes a free somatic tracking guide you can make part of your daily practice. It's one of 60+ practices from our course - The Somatic Safety Method, published by MBody Community.

In this episode, we are joined by one of the world's leading expert physicians on neuroplastic pain and symptoms. Dr. Rebecca Kennedy sits down with Tanner, sharing science, personal stories, and practical ideas to get to the root of chronic symptoms - and heal!

We discuss how chronic fatigue and long COVID are commonly neuroplastic - meaning they are generated by the brain and nervous system, not ongoing physical damage or disease.

You'll lean:
• Why downstream biomarkers reflect brain functioning and nervous system state, not irreversible physical damage
• Why symptoms occur, and how they can move and change
• The importance of emotional awareness and expression in recovery
• Ideas for increasing mind-body communication
• About Dr. Kennedy’s 1:1 work, team approach, and upcoming course

Rebecca Kennedy, MD, is a family medicine physician with more than 20 years of clinical experience. She worked at a migrant farmworker clinic at the start of her career, then spent 15 years at Kaiser Permanente in Portland, Oregon, where she served as the lead physician for the Long COVID specialty group.

In 2023, she founded Resilience Health Care, a clinic dedicated to treating neuroplastic symptoms. She now provides virtual consultations to patients worldwide and supports recovery from a wide range of chronic symptoms with a particular focus on long COVID.

She is active in teaching, collaboration, and advocacy. Dr. Kennedy collaborates internationally on treating chronic pain and other persistent symptoms. She is a member of the Oslo Chronic Fatigue Consortium and serves as board chair of the nonprofit
Association for the Treatment of Neuroplastic Symptoms (ATNS).
