In this episode, Destiny Winters LPC CRC discusses the often overlooked aspect of social needs in chronic pain management. She emphasizes how current pain research tends to focus on individual cognitive and emotional strategies, neglecting the vital role of community and social connections.

She also highlights the importance of mindfulness and psychological interventions, but stresses that these should be complemented by strong social support systems.
