Comparing two types of cognitive behavioral therapy for chronic pain
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests two different ways of doing cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for chronic pain — one is a standard approach, the other is tailored to your personal pain network. The goal is to see which method helps you better manage your pain and improve your quality of life.
