Group Information:

Emotional Awareness and Expression Therapy (EAET) is a form of psychological therapy that targets the trauma, stress, and relationship problems that are common for people who experience chronic pain. Centralized pain conditions are strongly influenced by the functions of the central nervous system, especially one’s thoughts, feelings, and relationships.

Such pain conditions include most cases of fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome, pelvic pain, temporomandibular pain, head pain, and many cases of back or other localized pain. Research shows that how an individual handles stress, can trigger, worsen, or maintain their pain symptoms.

The experience of chronic pain is most often a result of learned neural pathways in the brain, and recovery is possible. This group will deconstruct the connection between stress, emotions, and chronic pain symptoms.
