Chronic pain is often undertreated or mistreated due to inadequate access to care, stigma, and social inequalities. This course discusses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Managing Chronic Pain (CBT-CP). CBT-CP is an evidence based treatment that has shown to be effective in assisting clients with improving their sexual health and functioning while living with a chronic pain condition.
