For pain that has outlasted every explanation.
I'm Carolyn Evans, LISW-CP, a chronic pain therapist here in Charleston, South Carolina. I trained in the founding cohort of Pain Reprocessing Therapy with its creator, Alan Gordon, LCSW, and went on to study with Howard Schubiner, MD., a leading practitioner and researcher in neuroplastic pain.
Too many people are told their pain is "all in their head" when the truth is far more hopeful: a meaningful amount of chronic pain is neuroplastic in nature and therefore solvable. Neuroplastic pain is learned by the brain. And because it’s learned, it can be unlearned. Through my online course, Solve Chronic Pain™ I teach the neuroscience and practical tools that make that possible.
My one-on-one practice has limited space. The course gives you my full method plus every tip and trick, on your own time.
You don’t have to live with chronic pain or anxiety. I help my clients solve their pain and move on with their lives.
About Carolyn Evans, LISW-CP
I believe symptoms are signals, not life sentences. Chronic pain is often the nervous system's way of trying to protect us, long after the danger has passed. My work, using Pain Reprocessing Therapy and Internal Family Systems, helps the brain recognize that it's safe, so the pain signal can stop firing.
What My Clients Say
After 10 years of fibromyalgia, I finally found something that actually works. Carolyn understood me in a way medical doctors never did.
— Lisa S, Fibromyalgia clientWorking with Carolyn completely changed my relationship with my pain. I went from debilitating vestibular migraines to living a normal life again.
— Katie B, chronic migraine client
Carolyn helped me to retrain my brain. Who knew that was possible? I’m happy to say I am now free of the anxiety that used to rule my life. Thank you, Carolyn.

What My Solve Chronic Pain™ Students Say
Wow! I’m so grateful to Carolyn Evans who spoke with me and encouraged me to try PRT. This is really such a simple thing to do, but I now realize that I had so many things twisted and did not understand the "WHY". I do now. Pain is exhaustive and all consuming and I now have a tool kit to redirect, turn the volume down and hopefully be pain free for the rest of my days. Feeling hopeful and blessed.
— Debra J, Solve Chronic Pain™ student, chronic pelvic painSo many aha moments while taking this course, where do I begin? I finally understand how the perfectionist part of me has been pushing my pain for so many (30+) years. Getting in touch with this part of me has helped this part soften. The best part? My pain has softened too, to the point I hardly think about it. Pain is no longer running my life and I am so grateful for Carolyn and this course.
— Byron K, Solve Chronic Pain™ student, chronic back painI finally got the answer for why I’ve hurt so much, even when doctors say there’s nothing wrong with me. This course taught me not to be scared of the pain and over time, it has gone away. Carolyn is right when she says it’s all about getting the reps in, over time. I kept at it and now I am pain free.
