Real Symptoms. Real Care. Even When the Cause Isn’t Clear.
Chronic pain. Fatigue. Stomach issues. Strange symptoms with no clear diagnosis.
If you’ve been told “it’s all in your head” or bounced between doctors without answers, you may be dealing with a psychosomatic disorder. At Kalamazoo TMS & Behavioral Health, we take a whole-person approach to uncover the root of what you’re experiencing and help you heal in both body and mind.
Because Stress Can Speak Through the Body
Psychosomatic doesn’t mean “imaginary.” These are very real physical symptoms caused or made worse by emotional distress, chronic stress, unresolved trauma, or psychiatric conditions like depression or anxiety.
You might be struggling with: chronic pain that doesn’t respond to typical treatment, digestive issues with no clear medical explanation, fatigue, dizziness, brain fog as well as flare-ups that worsen with stress, grief, or emotional triggers.
Psychosomatic disorders are not fake or exaggerated. They’re the result of deep connections between the brain and body and they deserve real care.

Psychosomatic disorders are real physical symptoms caused or worsened by emotional stress, anxiety, trauma, or other psychological factors. They’re not “in your head”, they’re in your body, and they deserve real care.
We start with a full psychiatric evaluation, review your medical history, and consider the timeline of your symptoms. We also look at any medical tests you’ve had and how your symptoms relate to stress, mood, or life events. It’s a collaborative, non-judgmental process.
Psychosomatic symptoms can affect almost any part of the body. Common issues include chronic pain, digestive problems, fatigue, dizziness, chest tightness, skin issues, and tension headaches. If symptoms persist despite normal test results, psychosomatic causes may be involved.
Not at all. Your symptoms are very real. They just may not have a medical explanation alone. Emotional stress affects the body in powerful ways. Our job is to treat both the physical symptoms and the emotional drivers behind them.
Treatment may include therapy (like CBT or trauma-focused care), psychiatric medications (if needed), and stress management strategies. We may also collaborate with your primary care doctor or specialists to ensure you get full support.
Yes. We believe in integrated care. With your permission, we’ll work closely with your existing providers to make sure everyone is on the same page and your care is well-coordinated.
