Women-owned and founded by Tracey Chester, LMFT—a CCTP-credentialed trauma clinician, certified grief counselor, and surf therapist—Pain Trauma Institute operates from 4870 Santa Monica Ave in OB with an integrative model that bridges mental health services and medical pain management. Evidence-based treatment for chronic pain, chronic illness, trauma, and grief draws on a multidisciplinary advisory network, and the institute coordinates physical-rehabilitation referrals with mobile practitioners such as Physio on the Go for patients whose pain presentations require concurrent movement therapy. Co-location with Well-Mamas expands access to perinatal mental health support for mothers navigating postpartum mood disorders alongside chronic-pain conditions. The institute’s community programming includes support groups and continuing-education panels, and its chronic-pain referral corridor extends to Origin Modern Health for chiropractic co-management. Polyvagal-informed treatment plans layering trauma reprocessing with pain-neuroscience education across a six-month arc constitute the most complex clinical protocols the institute manages.
