When Pain Is a Pattern—Not Just a Symptom

Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) is a gentle, evidence-based approach that works with the brain’s learned pain pathways. If you’re living with chronic pain, especially pain that hasn’t responded to medical treatment, this therapy offers real hope.

Pain is like a conversation between body and brain. But as in any conversation, sometimes there are misunderstandings.
— Alan Gordon

What Is Pain Reprocessing Therapy?


  • A neuroscience-informed method for treating chronic pain

  • Based on the idea that some pain is neuroplastic—created by the brain, not tissue damage

  • Helps retrain the brain to interpret pain sensations as safe rather than dangerous


How PRT Can Help:

Reduce or eliminate chronic pain by calming overactive neural pathways

Address fear and tension that reinforce the pain-fear cycle

Support nervous system regulation and resilience

Help you reconnect with safety, movement, and trust in your body

Why I Use This Approach

So many of the people I work with have done everything right—doctors, medical scans, medications, procedures—but still live with unexplained pain. PRT offers a compassionate and empowering lens: your pain is real, and your brain has the capacity to change.

When the brain feels safe, the body can begin to heal.

Your body and mind carry the imprint of everything you’ve lived through, and they also carry the capacity to heal. This is a space to begin again, with care and intention, and a willingness to gently listen inward. Even the smallest shift in awareness can open the door to meaningful change.
