Mindfulness tailored for trauma: a new approach to chronic pain after abuse
NCT ID NCT07700355
First seen Jul 14, 2026 · Last updated Jul 15, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study develops and tests a program called MBCT-TIP, which combines mindfulness-based cognitive therapy with trauma-informed care for adults who have chronic pain and a history of intimate partner violence. Participants attend eight weekly group sessions and complete assessments before, after, and three months later. The goal is to see if the program is practical and acceptable for this group, and whether it helps reduce pain interference and post-traumatic stress symptoms.
