Efficacy of a transdiagnostic emotion–focused exposure treatment for chronic pain patients with comorbid anxiety and depression: a randomized controlled trial
Overview
This randomized controlled trial evaluates a transdiagnostic emotion-focused exposure treatment for adults with chronic musculoskeletal pain and comorbid anxiety or depression. The study compares this hybrid intervention, which integrates exposure therapy with dialectical behavior therapy techniques, against an internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy control group. Results indicate that the hybrid treatment yielded significantly better outcomes for pain catastrophizing, pain interference, and depression at post-treatment and follow-up, though no significant differences were found for anxiety or pain intensity.
