Chronic pain is rarely shaped by one thing alone.
Recovery can be affected by pain patterns, flares, sleep, stress, fear, confidence, daily function, treatment history, and support needs.
If you’ve tried multiple approaches and feel like recovery is not possible, that is not a failure on your part. It may mean the full pain experience has not been captured in a way that can guide the right next step yet.
Pain Care At Home™ helps capture the patterns, history, and daily impact that pain scores often miss, so care can be safer, more realistic, and easier to discuss with your care team.
Built by a bilingual registered nurse who has lived the patient side of chronic pain recovery.
Recovery is possible. The right starting point matters.
Many people seek care after something changes — a new symptom, a flare, a diagnosis, a surgery, or a shift in how their body feels.
Over time, repeated appointments, procedures that did not help, medication side effects, conflicting explanations, poor sleep, fear of movement, and feeling dismissed can make recovery feel even harder.
The Pain Recovery Assessment is designed to capture these layers so they can guide a more realistic recovery plan, better care-team communication, and support that fits your current capacity.
When your pain experience is captured clearly, care can move beyond guessing.
Most pain assessments ask one question: how bad is it, 0–10? That number matters, but it does not show what you are living with day to day. The Pain Profile looks at the patterns, stress load, daily function, and support needs that can affect recovery.
How and when your pain behaves, flares, and changes. We track what aggravates it and what brings relief.
Stress, tension, body activation, and mental effort that can keep your system on alert.
Your daily realities, support systems, and capacity. Because recovery has to fit into your actual life.
Four steps to help your care plan fit your symptoms, capacity, and recovery needs — not a generic protocol.
A free first step to review your pain experience and clarify your main recovery concerns.
A comprehensive nurse-led assessment across pain patterns, flares, function, sleep, and support needs.
A written plan with your support priorities, goals, and next steps — in plain language you can share with your care team.
Follow-up support to apply your next step with more confidence and less guesswork.
Pricing is listed to help you plan. The free 20-minute Pain Profile helps clarify whether education, a deeper assessment, a written care plan, coaching, or care-team communication may fit best before you choose a paid service.
Many people do not need another generic pain recommendation. They need a clearer way to understand what their symptoms, flares, function, and treatment history are showing now. Your free Pain Profile helps clarify whether your next step may be a full assessment, a written care plan, follow-up coaching, or a discussion with your current care team.
A free first conversation to review your pain experience, identify what feels unclear, and clarify which level of support may fit your situation.
A nurse-led assessment for people who have tried multiple treatments, feel overwhelmed by their pain story, or need a clearer way to understand what may be making recovery harder. It is not just a questionnaire — it combines your responses with a nurse-led consultation and a written report you can use with your care team.
The best option for people who want a written plan — not just insight. This service translates the recovery picture into goals, stabilization priorities, flare planning, pacing considerations, and questions to bring to your care team.
Book Assessment + Care Plan — $249 →A focused session to help you apply your next step with more support — flare planning, pacing, nervous system education, setbacks, confidence-building, and care team preparation.

Book Brief Session — $45 →BSN, RN, CCDS — Founder of Pain Care At Home™
For years, I worked as a nurse in traditional healthcare settings. I saw how often people with chronic pain moved from specialist to specialist without a clear plan that connected the full story.
Then everything changed — I developed fibromyalgia. Suddenly, I was the one sitting on the exam table, feeling dismissed, misunderstood, and desperate for answers. I learned how hard it can be when pain is real, but the care plan does not fully explain why recovery feels so difficult.
I built Pain Care At Home™ to offer the kind of support I needed when I was suffering. My philosophy is simple: pain is always real. When pain persists, recovery often requires more than one explanation or one treatment. It requires understanding the patterns, the nervous system response, the daily impact, and the support a person needs next.
You do not have to figure this out alone. Recovery can start with a clearer story, a realistic plan, and support that fits your current capacity.
It has been great so far, honestly. I am very much enjoying my discussions with Marisela. She is a great coach and I can see the benefits already and plan to continue in this relationship.
You helped me so much this morning. I am very emotional but glad I opened up for the first time in my life. I am so grateful for you.
This is one of the best somatic practices I have done. You are so calming and compassionate. Thank you so much.
The Pain Complexity Screening Tool™ (PCST™) is the clinical engine behind the Recovery Care Plan™ framework. It helps providers capture a biopsychosocial pain picture, document what may be affecting recovery, and notice when support, referral, stabilization, or slower onboarding may be needed.
The right question is not only the diagnosis. It is also what this person has lived through while trying to get better — and what support they need now.
Many people with chronic pain arrive with imaging, diagnoses, medications, procedure notes, treatment attempts, and years of trying to explain what happened. Yet the care team may still not have a clear picture of why recovery is difficult now.
The Recovery Care Plan™ framework helps capture what standard intake may miss: pain spread, flares, function, nervous system sensitivity, fear, emotional load, brain fog, treatment burden, healthcare experience, confidence, and support needs.
This matters because unclear findings can lead to mismatched plans, poor engagement, setbacks, weak documentation, and avoidable denial risk. The framework does not diagnose pain mechanisms or guarantee reimbursement. It supports clearer assessment, stronger documentation, better referrals, and more informed care planning.
What the framework captures
Access begins with a free consultation to review fit, scope, client population, documentation needs, and workflow. This helps clarify which resources may be useful and whether solo provider or care team access is the right fit.
Built for providers who need a clearer way to assess support needs:
Pain coaches, therapists, physical therapists, pelvic floor therapists, massage therapists, care navigators, team-based programs, and other professionals working with persistent pain within scope.
Required first step. No cost, no obligation. Review fit, scope, documentation needs, and implementation questions together.
Or $349/year. Includes tool access, scoring guidance, interpretation support, care-planning language, report templates, and pilot updates.
For clinics, group practices, team-based programs, and community programs. Pricing is based on team size, training needs, and support.
For clinicians and care teams using the framework within their professional scope. The Recovery Care Plan™ supports assessment, documentation, and care planning; it is not a diagnostic tool and does not guarantee reimbursement. Attorney review is in progress before full licensing launch.
The provider version helps clinicians, coaches, therapists, and care teams capture the factors that affect recovery. It also supports clear notes, safer referrals, and support that fits the person’s current capacity.
For pain coaches, care navigators, and support staff, the risk is not caring too much. The risk is making recommendations without enough information.
The framework helps providers see when a client may need education, coaching, stabilization first, referral back to a licensed clinician, behavioral health support, or team review.
Go beyond diagnosis and pain intensity. Review body, mood, stress, function, care history, and stability factors that may affect recovery.
Use clear, non-blaming language to document key findings, function, flares, confidence, treatment burden, care concerns, and care-plan rationale.
Clearer findings may help explain why education, coaching, rehab support, behavioral pain support, or care coordination may be appropriate. Payment approval is not guaranteed.
Clarify whether the person appears ready for active recovery work, needs preparation, or needs more stability first.
Support safer decisions about what fits within coaching or education — and what may need referral, better notes, clinical collaboration, or team care.
Create shared language for clinicians, coaches, therapists, and care navigators without reducing the person to a diagnosis, score, or single pain mechanism.
A free 20-minute session to review your pain experience, identify your main recovery concerns, and clarify what kind of support may make sense next. No commitment required.
The Pain Recovery Assessment reviews pain patterns, flares, function, sleep, emotional load, cognitive load, body activation, confidence, treatment history, healthcare experience, and support needs.
