Basic application of TNE in the clinic is a good starting point, but it is not the end-point for most patients. The ultimate expression of recovery is behavior change: return to physical confidence. For many patients, some pain will continue to be a part of life, but it doesn’t need to rule their lives. In order to help patients move forward despite their pain, clinicians need to embrace and impart additional strategies such as goal setting, pacing, graded exposure and behavioral change. These strategies lead to functional, empowered patients being able to resume fulfilled, meaningful lives. This course bridges the gap from initial pain education to independence.

Course Objectives/Outcomes

By the end of the course, a successful participant will be able to: 

  • Cultivate updated pain neuroscience metaphors, examples and stories to educate patients about pain.  
  • Critique the issues related to clinical application of PNE to enhance cognitive shifts in people struggling with pain.   
  • Develop advanced skills in patient interviewing to facilitate motivation, behavior change and independence.   
  • Customize the clinical application of goal setting, pacing and graded exposure.  
  • Integrate the practice of trauma informed and trauma responsive care into their practice.  
  • Apply principles discussed and taught in the class into clinical practice.  
  • Develop a comprehensive, evidence-based strategy aimed at true behavioral change culminating in patients becoming independent with their own care.

  • This class really helped switch my thinking from the biomedical model of pain to the biopscychosocial model. Finding that language that is both validating to the client and facilitates a different conversation than they have likely ever had about their pain is what I feel like I gained from this class. Course Graduate

  • I would highly recommend this course. You will continue to build upon a knowledge base, the sciences of pain and behavior change, and learn how to implement these things practically. Course Graduate
