This week on Therapy Talks, we gain invaluable insights into the modalities used to help clients with chronic pain. From Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. Our guest Shirvin Lee explains how she tailors her approach to each individual, empowering them to reframe their perceptions and relationships with pain. This transformational journey is crucial to improving their overall quality of life.
Shirvin Lee joins us to explore the common misunderstandings and stigma surrounding chronic pain. Shirvin sheds light on how individuals struggling with invisible pain often face skepticism and judgment from others, making it all the more challenging for them to seek support. She introduces the revolutionary concept of the "Spoon Theory" to help communicate energy levels and limitations to those who may not fully grasp the realities of chronic pain.
