Presenter: Kristin R. Archer, PhD, DPT and Stephen T. Wegener, PhD, ABPP Description: Psychosocial risk factors, such as fear of movement and pain catastrophizing, have a negative influence on rehabilitation outcomes and often result in higher levels of pain and disability. Evidence-based cognitive behavioral skills, such as graded activity, goal setting, problem solving, cognitive restructuring, and relaxation training, and motivation interviewing can address psychosocial risk factors and improve patient outcomes. This 1-day highly interactive session will introduce a targeted psychologically informed approach to rehabilitation. Training will include a mix of brief presentations, practice, group discussion, case scenarios, demonstration, and short videos. Clinicians and researchers will learn cognitive behavioral strategies and motivational interviewing skills to help patients manage their pain and increase their activity level, replace negative thinking with positive thoughts, find the right balance between rest and activity, and decrease setbacks by recognizing high-risk situations. This workshop will provide a program for addressing psychosocial risk factors and improving outcomes in patients with acute, sub-acute, and chronic musculoskeletal pain, including those recovering from surgery.
