Review: This book offers psychologists a clear and methodical look at pain management psychotherapy. Not just an overview but a thoughtful and thorough presentation of various traditional methods, techniques and approaches to working with those in chronic pain. It also offers a large appendix of pain measures, structured interviews etc. to assist with pain assessments and monitor treatment progress. Very highly recommended.

Review: We recommend this book to therapists in our facility within our multidisciplinary pain facility. When a nurse case manager requests reference material to understand the treatment of chronic pain, this book is also recommended. It is one of the first of its kind, it assists clinicians in understanding the evaluation process and establishment of treatment plans for pain patients. The book assists in determining goals of treatment and recommended interventions to obtain the goals. It is an excellent guide for those just starting out in pain management, or well entrench in the pain arena. I have extentsive experience in treating chronic pain and treaching others how to manage these patients, and found tremendous knowledge in this book. Definitely a reference guideline.
