Therapy for Chronic Health Conditions in Saugus, MA
Living with a chronic health condition can affect far more than your physical body. Ongoing symptoms, medical uncertainty, or fluctuating energy levels can shape how you see yourself, your relationships, and your future. You may feel frustrated, isolated, misunderstood, or emotionally exhausted by the constant adjustments required. Chronic health concerns may also contribute to anxiety or depression.
Therapy for chronic health conditions offers a space to process the emotional impact of long-term illness, pain, or disability while building coping strategies that honor both your mind and body. Therapy does not ask you to “push through” or minimize your experience—it supports you in adapting with compassion and care.
At ReAlign Wellness Group, we offer therapy for chronic health conditions in Saugus, MA and throughout Massachusetts for adults seeking affirming, emotionally grounded support.

How We Support You
Therapy for chronic health conditions focuses on supporting emotional regulation, self-understanding, and the ongoing process of adapting to uncertainty. Our therapists work collaboratively with you to explore the emotional impact of living with chronic illness, pain, or medical stress, offering space to process grief, stress, frustration, and emotional overwhelm in a way that feels respectful and validating. Care is grounded in honoring your lived experience rather than pushing quick solutions.
Living with chronic health concerns often requires continual adjustment; physically, emotionally, and relationally. Therapy can offer meaningful support as you navigate shifts in identity, independence, and expectations, including changes in how you relate to your body, your roles, and your future. Together, we focus on building coping strategies, self-compassion, and resilience, while creating room for emotions that may arise as circumstances evolve.
We take a trauma-informed, disability-aware approach that recognizes the impact of systemic barriers, medical bias, and long-term stress on emotional wellbeing.
Many clients experience benefits such as:
Increased emotional resilience
Improved coping with symptoms and uncertainty
Greater self-compassion and acceptance
Stronger communication and boundary-setting
Reduced isolation and emotional fatigue
