ECHO CLINICDr. Michael Lewandowski

Medical Focus leading to a Rehabilitation Focus

Cognitive Behavior Therapy - Three interrelated phases
• 1. Emphasis on a distinction between acute versus persistent/chronic pain; pain as manageable/controllable; emphasis on learning a pain self-management approach
• 2. Skills acquisition; behavioral activation and learning adaptive cognitive and behavioral pain coping skills
• 3. Maintenance and relapse prevention; problem-solving
.
.
Characteristics of CBT for chronic pain• Problem-oriented• Educational• Collaborative• Skill acquisition and practice, in clinic and at
home• Encourages expression, and then control, of
maladaptive thoughts and feelings• Addresses the relationships among thoughts,
feelings, physiology, and behavior• Emphasizes relapse prevention and maintenance
.
.
Other key ingredients
• Supportive, respectful, compassionate, understanding therapeutic relationship
• Explicit attention to motivation and readiness to adopt a self-management approach
• Explicit attention to sound behavior change principles (e.g., appropriate goal setting and effective use of social reinforcement)

Characteristics of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies:
1. Thoughts cause Feelings and Behaviors.
2. Brief and Time-Limited.Average # of sessions = 16 VS psychoanalysis = several years
3. Emphasis placed on current behavior.

.
4. CBT is a collaborative effort between the therapist and the client.
Client role - define goals, express concerns, learn & implement learning
Therapist role - help client define goals, listen, teach, encourage.
5. Teaches the benefit of remaining calm or at least neutral when faced with difficult situations. (If you are upset by your problems, you now have 2 problems: 1) the problem, and 2) your upsetness.

.
6. Based on "rational thought." - Fact not assumptions.
7. CBT is structured and directive. Based on notion that maladaptive behaviors are the result of skill deficits.
8. Based on assumption that most emotional and behavioral reactions are learned. Therefore, the goal of therapy is to help clients unlearn their unwanted reactions and to learn a new way of reacting.
9. Homework is a central feature of CBT.

CBT EvidenceBased on numerous RCTs,
reviews and meta-analyses, there is strong support for the efficacy of CBT for improving pain, physical functioning and mood in many chronic pain states.
.
.
Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Based on acceptance and mindfulness
Get to know unpleasant feelings, learn not to act on them, do not avoid situations
Meta-Analysis: When ACT was compared to various forms of CBT a non-significant effect size of 0.16 was obtained. However, an evidence-base evaluation showed that ACT is probably efficacious for chronic pain
