Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy for Chronic Pain, 1ed

A proven approach to integrating mindfulness with CBT to manage chronic pain

In this unique guide, Dr. Melissa Day seamlessly integrates recent advances in the biopsychosocial understanding of chronic pain with state-of-the-art cognitive therapy and mindfulness techniques to offer a fresh and highly effective Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) approach to helping patients manage chronic pain.

Readers get detailed, step-by-step guidance on how to teach patients MBCT skills, a complete, eight-session MBCT program structure, illustrated patient and therapist handouts, guided meditation audios, and other powerful tools.
