About Us: Chronic Pain Psychiatry
Our Journey
Chronic Pain Psychiatry was founded in 2017 with a vision to shed light on and combat the often-overlooked issue of chronic pain management within the psychiatric realm. Our journey began as a passion project for Dr. Emma Wilson, a renowned psychiatrist specializing in pain psychology, who recognized the severe lack of accessible, unbiased information available to those living with chronic pain.
Mission and Purpose
Our mission is to empower individuals navigating chronic pain by providing an authoritative, reliable online resource for psychiatric interventions and support. We strive to bridge the gap between medical and mental health care, ensuring that people have access to evidence-based practices and the latest research in pain management.
Core Values:
- Integrity: We commit to delivering unbiased, accurate, and ethical information based on scientific evidence.
- Accessibility: Our goal is to make expert knowledge readily available to all those seeking relief from chronic pain.
- Empathy: We understand the challenges faced by individuals living with chronic pain and strive to provide compassionate support.
Addressing a Need
The internet, while brimming with information, often presents a maze of conflicting advice and misleading claims surrounding chronic pain management. Many individuals struggle to discern credible sources from marketing ploys, hindering their access to effective solutions. Chronic Pain Psychiatry aims to fill this void by:
- Curating: Carefully selecting and presenting research-backed articles, case studies, and expert opinions.
- Verifying: Ensuring all information is reviewed and approved by a team of qualified professionals.
- Simplifying: Translating complex medical jargon into understandable language for the average reader.

- Individuals living with chronic pain: Those seeking better understanding, management, and coping strategies for their condition.
