Karra Eloff is an Australian speaker and entrepreneur.
Known for her compassionate approach and expert knowledge in the area of chronic pain, mental health, joy and performance her engaging workshops, insightful writings and private coaching make a profound impact on those she serves.
Karra’s work in the area of pain, performance and emotional well-being started with a career in health and communication. She holds a Master of Speech Pathology from The University of Queensland and a bachelor degree in Applied Linguistics and Languages. Her early career focused on the ways in which language is fundamental to human understanding, communication and culture, as well as supporting individuals with speech, language and swallowing conditions.
In 2015 Karra co-founded the private psychology company, Eloff & Andrews Clinical Psychology (E&A). In her role as managing director, she leads a team of dedicated health professionals and thrives on every opportunity to genuinely care for the Sunshine Coast community through the mental health service.
While working in the area of mental health and due to her own journey with a painful chronic illness, Karra became acutely aware of the lack of practical support for:
Couples affected by a partner with chronic pain
High performing individuals who didn’t want chronic illness or pain to hold them back
This led her to founding the startup company, The Chronic Pain Couple™ and penning the book The Chronic Pain Couple: How to be a joyful partner and have a remarkable relationship in spite of chronic pain (now sold worldwide and translated into French and German).
Organisations draw on Karra’s knowledge to bolster their Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) programs in the area of chronic pain management and performance in the workplace and inspire teams to live and work successfully in spite of chronic pain or illness.
Karra regularly presents in Australia and internationally at conferences and events on the topic of persistent pain and relationships, as well as persistent pain and high-performance. She was a regular guest panelist on the Australian TV show BeThat.
