Mental Health + Aging with Dr. Regina Koepp

#083- Brief Effective Pain Management for Older Adults with Beth Darnall, PhD


Listen Later

[CEU Podcast]  - With the majority of people living with chronic pain being older adults, it's critical that there are affordable, accessible, AND effective pain management programs to help older adults manage chronic pain. 

In this episode, Dr. Beth Darnall, Associate Professor at Stanford University School of Medicine, Department of Anesthesiology, Perioperative, and Pain Medicine, and creator of Empowered ReliefTM shares:

  • why people with chronic pain may not be getting the holistic care they need. 
  • the benefits of a 2 hour skills-based course, compared to traditional models of psychotherapy, like 8-10 sessions of CBT
  • how a single-session online pain management class has been applied to older adults for pain and symptom management.
