Beyond Therapy Types: Mindful Self-Compassion and the Future of Process-Based Therapy for Chronic Pain.

Abstract

This journal recently published a paper by Palao et al., (2021) entitled "Mindful Self-Compassion Program for Chronic Pain Patients: A Randomized Controlled Trial." In their study the authors compare a treatment including mindfulness and self-compassion methods (MSC) with conventional cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). They recruited people with long standing chronic pain plus significant anxiety or depression (N = 123).
