RECLAIMING YOUR LIFE:
Living With Chronic Pain or Illness
If you are one of the millions
of people in the U.S. challenged with chronic pain and/or chronic
illness, feelings of being isolated, unheard and misunderstood can be as
difficult as pain or illness itself. Often, anxiety, depression and
tremendous frustration accompany chronic conditions, leaving one feeling
terribly lonely.
MAPS Counseling Services is now offering an ongoing, weekly group for
those living with chronic pain and/or chronic illness. (Click

Group is led by Adele Michaelides, M.A. For further information,
