Migraine Therapy in Lee’s Summit: How Counseling Helps When Medication Isn’t Enough
If you're reading this, you probably know what it's like to plan your life around migraines. You check the weather forecast—not to decide what to wear, but to brace yourself for a barometric pressure change. You keep rescue medication in your car, your purse, your desk drawer, just in case. You've canceled plans, left work early, missed important events because a migraine hit and there was nothing you could do but retreat to a dark, quiet room and wait it out.
Maybe you've tried multiple medications. Maybe some of them help a little, or help sometimes, but the migraines keep coming back. Or maybe you're dealing with side effects from medications that feel almost as bad as the migraines themselves. You've tracked your triggers—certain foods, lack of sleep, stress, hormones, bright lights—and you've done your best to avoid them. But the migraines still find you.
Here's what we want you to know: Therapy can help with migraines. Not as a replacement for medical care, but as a powerful addition to it. And for many people, therapy addresses the root of why migraines keep happening in a way that medication alone can't.
At Aspire Counseling, our therapists work with people experiencing chronic migraines throughout Missouri, including in-person sessions at our Lee's Summit office. We use evidence-based approaches that help your nervous system calm down and your brain reinterpret the signals that trigger migraines. This isn't about "just relaxing" or pretending the pain doesn't exist. It's about understanding how your brain and nervous system create migraine patterns—and learning that those patterns can change.
Can a Therapist Help with Migraines?
Yes, absolutely. And we understand if that sounds surprising or even hard to believe.
Here's what research shows: migraines are a neurological condition, which means they're fundamentally about how your nervous system functions. While there can be physical triggers—like dehydration or certain foods—the migraine itself happens because your brain interprets those triggers as threats and responds with a cascade of neurological changes that create pain, nausea, sensitivity to light and sound, and all the other symptoms you know too well.
Therapy for migraines works by addressing the patterns in your nervous system. When you've had migraines for months or years, your brain gets very good at creating them. It starts to interpret more and more things as potential triggers. Your nervous system stays in a heightened state of alert, always scanning for the next threat. And this constant vigilance actually makes migraines more likely and more severe.
Therapy helps in several specific ways:
It reduces the fear that makes migraines worse. When you're terrified of getting a migraine, your nervous system interprets that fear as confirmation that there's danger. This keeps you in a state of high alert, which paradoxically makes migraines more likely. We help you notice when fear is showing up and learn to respond to it differently.
It addresses the stress-migraine connection. You probably already know that stress triggers your migraines. But understanding how that happens—and learning specific techniques to change your nervous system's response to stress—can reduce both the frequency and intensity of migraines.
It helps you separate the sensation from your emotional reaction to it. When you feel the first signs of a migraine coming on, there's usually an immediate spike of anxiety or dread. That emotional reaction actually amplifies the pain signals. Learning to notice sensations without immediately catastrophizing about them can change the trajectory of a migraine.
It gives you tools to work with your brain rather than against it. Your brain isn't trying to hurt you with migraines. It's trying to protect you in a way that's become unhelpful. When you understand this, you can start teaching your brain that it doesn't need to keep sounding this particular alarm.
Studies on approaches like Pain Reprocessing Therapy and mindfulness-based interventions have shown significant reductions in migraine frequency and intensity. This isn't about positive thinking. It's about retraining your nervous system.
What Is the Best Way to Deal with Migraines Beyond Medication?
The best approach to migraines usually involves both medical care and therapeutic work that addresses your nervous system patterns.
Medication plays an important role for many people—whether that's preventive medications that reduce migraine frequency or rescue medications that help when a migraine hits. We would never tell you to stop medication. That's between you and your doctor.
But medication alone often isn't enough. And there are several reasons why therapy can be such a powerful addition:
Therapy addresses what keeps migraines stuck. If your migraines were purely about a chemical imbalance or a structural problem, medication would fix them. But for most people with chronic migraines, there's a learned component—your nervous system has developed a pattern of responding to certain triggers with a migraine response. Therapy helps you unlearn that pattern.
Therapy gives you agency. With medication, you're waiting to see if it works. With therapy, you're actively learning skills and making changes that affect your migraines. Many of our clients find this shift from passive to active incredibly empowering.
Therapy helps you understand your patterns. When we slow down and pay close attention—not just to your migraines, but to what's happening in your life and your body before a migraine hits—patterns emerge. Maybe migraines show up after particularly stressful weeks, or when you've been pushing yourself too hard, or when you're not allowing yourself to feel certain emotions. Understanding these patterns is the first step to changing them.
Therapy welcomes all the parts of your experience. You probably have a part that's angry about migraines. A part that's scared they'll never stop. A part that feels guilty for canceling plans. A part that's exhausted from fighting. We don't ask any of those parts to go away. When you can pay attention to all of them without judgment, something shifts. Your internal system stops fighting itself, and that calm often translates to fewer migraines.
The best way to deal with migraines is usually a both/and approach: continue medical care while adding therapeutic work that addresses the nervous system patterns keeping migraines stuck.
Are Migraines a Mental Health Issue?
No—and also yes. It's complicated, and that's actually important to understand.
Migraines are a neurological condition. They're not "in your head" in the way people sometimes mean that phrase—like you're imagining them or causing them with your attitude. Your brain is genuinely creating pain, visual disturbances, nausea, and all the other symptoms. This is real and physical.
But mental health and migraines are deeply connected because your brain doesn't have separate compartments for "physical" and "emotional." Stress, anxiety, depression—these affect your nervous system, and your nervous system is what creates migraines.
Here's what we often see: People with chronic migraines have higher rates of anxiety and depression. This makes perfect sense. Living with the constant threat of a migraine is incredibly stressful. Never knowing when one will hit, having to be hypervigilant about triggers, dealing with the aftermath of lost time and canceled plans—of course that affects your mental health.
But it also works the other way: anxiety and chronic stress make migraines more likely and more severe. When your nervous system is already running in high alert mode because of stress or anxiety, it doesn't take much to tip you into a migraine.
This isn't about blame. It's not that you're causing your migraines by being stressed or anxious. It's that stress and anxiety create conditions in your nervous system that make your brain more likely to interpret signals as dangerous and respond with a migraine.
Understanding this connection is hopeful because it means you have more avenues for addressing migraines. Yes, continue working with your doctor on the medical side. And also work on the nervous system patterns, the stress responses, the way you relate to the sensations in your body. Both matter.
The question isn't really "Are migraines physical or mental?" The question is "How can I address all the factors that contribute to my migraines?" And therapy is a powerful way to address the nervous system and stress components.
How Does the Fear-Pain Cycle Actually Work with Migraines?
This is one of the most important concepts to understand if you have chronic migraines.
The fear-migraine cycle works like this:
You've had migraines before, so you know how terrible they are. This means that whenever you notice any sensation that might be the start of a migraine—a slight pressure behind your eyes, a weird visual thing, tension in your neck—you immediately feel fear.
That fear spikes your stress hormones and puts your nervous system into high alert. Your brain interprets this fear as confirmation that there is danger, which makes it more likely to create the protective response it knows best: a migraine.
The migraine happens, which reinforces your brain's belief that those early sensations were indeed dangerous warning signs. So the next time you notice anything similar, you feel even more fear. And the cycle continues.
Here's what this looks like in daily life:
You wake up and immediately scan your body: Do I feel okay? Is a migraine coming? There's a tight feeling in your temples—is that a migraine starting, or just normal tension? Fear spikes. Your nervous system goes on alert. Whether or not a migraine was actually coming, now your brain is primed for one.
You have an important meeting this afternoon. All morning, part of you is monitoring: What if I get a migraine? What if I can't present? What if it happens in front of everyone? That worry and vigilance keep your nervous system activated—which increases the likelihood of exactly what you're afraid of.
You're at a friend's house and the lighting is bright. You think: This could trigger a migraine. I need to leave. Maybe the lighting would have been fine, but the fear and tension about it create the conditions for a migraine anyway.
The cycle feeds on itself. More fear creates more sensitivity, which creates more migraines, which creates more fear.
Breaking the cycle doesn't mean ignoring warning signs. It means learning to notice sensations without immediately catastrophizing about them. It means teaching your brain that not every tension headache is the start of a migraine. It means gradually reducing the hypervigilance that keeps your nervous system on high alert.
When we work together, we help you notice when fear is showing up. We don't ask you to "not be afraid"—that's not realistic and it doesn't work. Instead, we help you create space between the sensation and your reaction to it. When you can observe a sensation with curiosity instead of panic, something shifts in your nervous system. And often, the migraine either doesn't develop or it's much less severe than it would have been.
Slow is fast in this work. Rushing to "fix" your fear response actually keeps the cycle going. When we slow down and really pay attention to what's happening—in your body, in your emotions, in your thoughts—you start to see patterns you couldn't see before. And those insights create change more reliably than trying to force yourself not to be afraid.
Can Therapy Help Migraines When Triggers Feel Random?
Yes, and this is actually one of the most helpful things therapy can address.
When your migraines feel random and unpredictable, it's terrifying. At least if you knew for certain that wine or aged cheese triggered them, you could avoid those things. But when migraines seem to come out of nowhere—on a beautiful day when you did everything "right," after a good night's sleep, when you weren't particularly stressed—it feels impossible to protect yourself.
But here's what we often discover: migraines are rarely as random as they seem.
When we slow down and start paying very close attention—not just to your migraines, but to the days and hours leading up to them—patterns usually emerge. Sometimes those patterns aren't what you'd expect.
Emotional triggers that don't feel like triggers. Maybe migraines happen after particularly good days, because you unconsciously hold tension when you're trying to keep everything together. Or after conflict, even minor conflict you didn't think bothered you much. Or when you're excited about something—excitement activates your nervous system in ways that can tip into a migraine.
The "let-down" effect. Many people get migraines after periods of high stress end—on the first day of vacation, after a big deadline, over the weekend. Your nervous system stays in high alert during the stressful period, then when it tries to relax, the shift itself triggers a migraine. These don't feel random—they feel cruelly timed—but understanding the pattern helps.
Subtle nervous system activation. You might not consciously feel stressed, but your nervous system is registering stress. Maybe you're scrolling social media before bed and don't realize how activated it's making you. Or you're having lovely conversations with extended family but unconsciously bracing yourself the whole time. Or you're fine with the demands of your job until suddenly you're not—and a migraine is how your body says "this is too much."
Cumulative effects. One night of poor sleep might not trigger a migraine. But one night of poor sleep, plus a skipped meal, plus a stressful morning, plus bright lights in the afternoon—the effects add up until your nervous system tips over the threshold into migraine territory. It feels random because no single thing was enough, but the combination was.
Therapy helps Chronic Pain in several ways:
We help you notice patterns you couldn't see before. Sometimes this means tracking—but not in the obsessive way you might have already tried. We track with curiosity rather than fear. We're looking for information, not trying to control everything.
We help you understand your nervous system's threshold. Some days your threshold is higher—you can handle more before a migraine hits. Some days it's lower. Understanding what affects that threshold gives you more options.
We address the unpredictability itself. Living with the constant fear of a random migraine keeps your nervous system in the exact state that makes migraines more likely. When you can develop some trust that you understand your body better—even if you can't prevent every migraine—the hypervigilance reduces, and often the migraines do too.
Everything is an experience we can learn from—even the migraines that seem random. When we pay attention without judgment, those "random" migraines often teach us something important about what our nervous system needs.
Why Do My Migraines Get Worse When I'm Stressed?
Because stress and migraines are directly connected through your nervous system—and understanding how that connection works is key to addressing it.
Here's what happens in your brain and nervous system when you're stressed:
Your stress response activates your sympathetic nervous system—the part that gets you ready to fight or flee from danger. This involves a cascade of changes: stress hormones release, your heart rate increases, muscles tense (especially in your neck, jaw, and shoulders), blood vessels constrict then dilate, and your brain goes into high alert mode scanning for threats.
All of these changes are helpful if you're actually in danger. But if you're stressed about work, relationships, finances, or just the general overwhelm of life—and that stress is chronic rather than acute—your nervous system stays activated. And this chronic activation is a setup for migraines.
Specifically, stress affects migraines in these ways:
Muscle tension. When you're stressed, you unconsciously hold tension in your neck, jaw, and shoulders. This tension can trigger migraines directly, or it can create the conditions that make you more vulnerable to other triggers.
Blood vessel changes. Stress affects how blood vessels in your brain constrict and dilate. The phases of a migraine involve changes in blood flow, and chronic stress seems to make these changes more dramatic and more likely.
Sensitization. When your nervous system is chronically stressed, it becomes more sensitive to everything. A trigger that might not have caused a migraine when you were calm can tip you into migraine territory when you're stressed. Your threshold for what counts as "danger" drops lower and lower.
Sleep disruption. Stress affects sleep quality, and poor sleep is a major migraine trigger. So stress creates migraines both directly and indirectly through sleep.
The worry spiral. When you're stressed about life things, you're often also stressed about potentially getting a migraine. This meta-stress (stress about stress) keeps your nervous system even more activated.
But here's the hopeful part: You can work with your nervous system.
You Need More Than Stress Management
You can't eliminate all stress from your life—that's not realistic. But you can change how your nervous system responds to stress. We teach you specific techniques to help your nervous system settle, even in the middle of stressful situations.
This includes learning to notice when you're holding tension and actively releasing it. Learning to interrupt the stress spiral before it cascades into migraine territory. Understanding which stressors are negotiable (maybe you need to say no to some things) and which aren't (you still have to show up to work), so you can make intentional choices about where to direct your energy.
And crucially, we help you not add more stress by being stressed about stress. That meta-layer of "I shouldn't be stressed" or "Why can't I just handle this?" often makes everything worse. When you can allow yourself to acknowledge stress without fighting yourself about having it, your nervous system actually calms down more easily.
This is what we mean by welcoming all parts. The part that's stressed has good reasons. The part that's worried about migraines has good reasons. When we make space for all of it—without trying to fix or fight any of it—things naturally settle.
Which Therapy Is Best for Migraines?
Different therapeutic approaches can help with migraines, and the best one for you depends on your specific situation. At Aspire Counseling, we primarily use these evidence-based approaches for chronic migraines:
Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) focuses specifically on retraining your brain's response to pain signals. With migraines, this means learning to interpret the sensations that usually precede a migraine differently—noticing them with curiosity rather than fear. PRT helps you understand that these sensations don't necessarily mean danger, which interrupts the fear-migraine cycle. This approach has strong research support for chronic pain conditions including migraines.
Internal Family Systems (IFS) helps you work with all the different parts of yourself that have feelings about your migraines. There's probably a part that's terrified of getting a migraine. A part that's angry this is happening to you. A part that feels guilty about canceling plans. A part that tries to push through and pretend everything's fine. When these parts are in conflict—fighting each other or trying to override each other—your nervous system stays activated. IFS helps all these parts work together instead of against each other. And when your internal system settles, physical symptoms often improve dramatically.
Mindfulness Oriented Recovery Enhancement (MORE) teaches you to separate the physical sensation of pain from your emotional reaction to it. With migraines, this means learning to notice "there's pressure behind my eyes" without immediately spiraling into "oh no, here it comes, this is going to ruin my day." That separation—between sensation and reaction—can actually change whether a sensation develops into a full migraine. MORE also helps you find moments of ease and relief even when pain is present, which reduces overall suffering.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for migraines addresses the thoughts and behaviors that keep migraines stuck. Maybe you avoid activities because you're afraid they'll trigger a migraine (which actually increases sensitization). Or you catastrophize every headache as evidence you're getting worse. Or you've developed a lot of rigid rules about what you can and can't do. CBT helps you notice these patterns and develop more flexible, helpful ways of thinking and responding.
The approach we use with you depends on what makes sense for your situation. We don't follow a rigid protocol. We listen to what's happening for you and adapt our approach accordingly. Sometimes we'll use primarily one approach; often we'll blend techniques from different approaches.
What matters most isn't which specific therapy we use—it's that you feel understood, that the approach makes sense to you, and that you're learning skills that actually help with your migraines.
Can Counseling Reduce Migraine Frequency If Medications Don't Help?
Yes. In fact, therapy can be particularly effective when medications haven't provided sufficient relief.
Here's why: If medication isn't working well, that's often a clue that there's a significant neuroplastic or nervous system component to your migraines. Medication works on the chemical and vascular aspects of migraines. When it doesn't work, or only works partially, it suggests that the patterns maintaining your migraines are more about nervous system conditioning than about a simple chemical imbalance.
This is actually hopeful information because nervous system patterns can change through therapy.
Research on therapy for chronic migraines shows:
Studies on mindfulness-based approaches and cognitive behavioral therapy for migraines have shown reductions in both migraine frequency and migraine intensity—often comparable to or better than medication in some studies.
Pain Reprocessing Therapy studies have shown significant reductions in chronic pain (including headaches and migraines) even for people who had tried multiple other treatments without success.
Studies on stress reduction and nervous system regulation show that people who learn to manage their stress response and calm their nervous system often experience fewer migraines.
What this looks like in practice:
Many of our clients come to us having tried multiple medications with limited success. Maybe medication helps a little—it might take the edge off a migraine, or reduce frequency from twice a week to once a week—but they're still experiencing regular migraines that interfere with their lives.
After several months of therapy, they typically report:
Migraines are less frequent (maybe from once a week to twice a month)
When migraines do happen, they're less intense
They can sometimes "catch" a migraine early and prevent it from developing fully
They're less afraid of migraines, which reduces overall stress and makes migraines even less likely
They have better tools for managing migraines when they do happen
It's important to understand: Progress isn't usually linear. You might have a great week with no migraines, then two in one week. That doesn't mean therapy isn't working. Migraines can fluctuate for lots of reasons—hormones, weather, sleep, stress. What we're looking for is the overall trend over time.
And sometimes the most meaningful change isn't that migraines disappear entirely—it's that they stop controlling your life. Maybe you still get migraines occasionally, but you're no longer constantly afraid of them. You make plans without the constant "but what if I get a migraine" anxiety. That shift in your relationship to migraines is itself a major change.
We would never tell you to stop medication if it's helping at all. But adding therapy—especially if medication alone isn't enough—can address the nervous system patterns that keep migraines coming back.
What Should I Expect in Migraine Therapy in Lee's Summit?
If you decide to work with us for your chronic migraines, here's what the process typically looks like:
Your First Session: Understanding Your Migraine Story
We start by getting a comprehensive picture of your migraines:
When did they start?
How often do they happen?
What does a typical migraine look like for you?
What have you already tried? (medications, triggers you've identified, lifestyle changes)
How do migraines affect your daily life, relationships, work?
We're also exploring the mind-body connection in your specific situation:
Does stress affect your migraines?
Do migraines get worse when you're anxious or after emotional experiences?
Are there patterns you've noticed, even if they don't seem to make sense?
This isn't about proving anything. It's about understanding your unique pattern so we can tailor our approach.
Assessment Sessions: The Big Picture
Your next 1-2 sessions focus on understanding the full context of your life:
What else is going on for you besides migraines? (Stress, relationships, work demands, other health issues)
How does your nervous system typically function? (Do you tend toward anxiety? Are you someone who pushes through discomfort?)
What are your goals for therapy?
We know this might feel tedious when you want to get to migraine relief already. But this groundwork means we won't have to keep interrupting later for context—we can work more efficiently.
Active Treatment: Learning and Practicing New Skills
Once we understand your pattern, we start the active work. This might include:
Noticing the fear-migraine cycle. We help you catch moments when fear spikes—maybe you feel a sensation and immediately think "oh no, it's starting." Learning to notice that fear without getting swept up in it is a skill that develops over time.
Working with your nervous system. We teach you specific techniques to help your nervous system settle—both in the moment when you feel a migraine coming on, and as a daily practice to reduce overall nervous system activation.
Paying attention differently. Instead of scanning your body with fear, looking for problems, you learn to pay attention with curiosity. What sensations are actually present? How do they change? Can you notice them without immediately interpreting them as dangerous?
Exploring the parts of you that relate to migraines. Maybe there's a part that's angry about having migraines, a part that's scared, a part that feels guilty. When you can understand what each part is trying to do for you—even the parts that seem problematic—things often shift naturally.
Between Sessions: Practice and Observation
Therapy for migraines isn't just what happens in our sessions. Between sessions, you'll be:
Practicing techniques we've discussed
Paying attention to your patterns with curiosity rather than fear
Noticing what's happening in your life and body before and during migraines
This isn't busywork—it's how the real learning happens. But we keep it manageable. We're not asking you to track every tiny thing or follow complicated protocols.
Over Time: Progress That's Rarely Linear
Most people work with us for several months. Some notice changes quickly—maybe after just a few sessions, they're less afraid of migraines or they catch themselves in the fear spiral and can interrupt it. Others take longer to see significant shifts.
Progress almost always involves setbacks. You might have a stretch of good weeks, then get three migraines in a week. That doesn't mean you're back to square one. It means your nervous system is in a process of change, and that process isn't a straight line.
However, please note that we do monitor your progress. Your therapist will regularly ask you about your pain. They may even consult with your treating physician. We also administer symptom scales through our Blueprint system at least once a month.
Our Philosophy: Slow Is Fast
We don't rush this work. When we try to push past fear or force ourselves to "not be stressed," we're actually keeping our nervous system activated. When we slow down and really listen—to your body, to your emotions, to the different parts of you that have feelings about migraines—lasting change happens more reliably.
All parts are welcome here. The part that's skeptical therapy can help. The part that's exhausted from trying things that don't work. The part that's hopeful and the part that's given up. We don't need you to fight yourself. When your internal system feels heard and validated, your nervous system naturally begins to settle.
Frequently Asked Questions About Migraine Therapy
How is migraine therapy different from regular talk therapy?
Migraine therapy is much more focused on your nervous system and the mind-body connection. While we do talk about your emotions and experiences, we're specifically looking at how those connect to your migraines and teaching you concrete skills to affect your nervous system. It's more active and skill-based than traditional talk therapy.
Will therapy help with migraines that have a clear physical trigger like weather or hormones?
Yes. Even when there are physical triggers, your nervous system's response to those triggers makes a big difference. Therapy can't change the weather or your hormones, but it can change how sensitized your nervous system is to those triggers. Many people find that triggers that used to reliably cause migraines stop doing so—or cause milder migraines—after therapy.
Do I need to stop my migraine medication to do therapy?
Absolutely not. Continue any medication that's helping. Therapy and medication work well together. Some people find they gradually need less medication as therapy progresses, but that's not something we push—it's a natural outcome for some people.
How long does it take to see improvement in my migraines?
It varies. Some people notice changes within a few weeks—often a reduction in fear about migraines or an increased sense of agency. For most people, meaningful reductions in migraine frequency take 2-4 months. Complex or long-standing migraine patterns may take 6+ months to see sustained improvement.
Can I do migraine therapy online, or does it need to be in person?
Online therapy works just as well for migraines. The work is about understanding patterns, learning skills, and practicing new ways of responding to sensations—all of which translate perfectly to video sessions. Many of our clients actually prefer online therapy because if they're having a tough pain day, they don't have to drive to an office.
What if I try therapy and my migraines don't improve?
If you're not seeing any benefit after 8-10 sessions, we'll talk honestly about that. We might adjust our approach, explore whether there's something else that needs attention first, or help you find other resources. We won't keep doing something that isn't helping.
Is this just learning to "live with" migraines, or can therapy actually reduce them?
For many people, therapy actually reduces migraine frequency and intensity—not just coping with them better. That said, even if some migraines continue, learning to respond to them differently and reducing the fear around them is itself a major improvement in quality of life.
Ready to Address Your Migraines with Therapy?
You've probably tried so many things to get your migraines under control. More medications, trigger elimination diets, supplements, lifestyle changes. Maybe some of them helped a little. But you're still dealing with migraines that interfere with your life.
Therapy for migraines works differently than those other approaches because it addresses the nervous system patterns that keep migraines coming back. It's not about adding one more restriction to your life or trying one more medication. It's about understanding how your brain and nervous system work—and teaching them something new.
