CBT for Chronic Pain Worksheet

The CBT for Chronic Pain Worksheet can have an array of benefits for therapists and clients dealing with chronic pain symptoms. As a structured document, it encourages self-reflection that provides insight into the inner workings of the individual's thinking and behaviors, which can then be used to develop strategies to alleviate symptoms.

Chronic pain is persistent pain that extends over three months. It usually exists as a cycle of chronic pain that is often accompanied by poor mental health, sleep problems, and low mood.

The worksheet is most typically used as a resource to support CBT techniques targeting chronic pain. However, its flexibility can also be used for chronic pain education, locating causality, and reviewing treatment plans.
