Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Brief pain exposure therapy (BPET)

Participants will complete daily logs for 7-days pre-treatment baseline, along with 21 days during the intervention protocol (fibromyalgia participants only will complete the daily logs), and 7 for days post-treatment. Brief Pain Exposure Therapy will be given for 3 weeks, 1.5 hours per week, telehealth-based behavioral intervention for chronic pain. Session content will include pain neuroscience education, mindfulness meditation, and graded exposure techniques for improving tolerance of painful or feared activities. Participants will also be provided handouts and pre-recorded meditation and imagery scripts that participants can use to facilitate between-session practices. In addition, participants will complete surveys through-out the study.
