Guided Self-Help for People with Chronic Pain: Integrated Care in a Public Tertiary Pain Clinic-A Pilot Study
CONCLUSION: Integrating a GSH program for people with chronic pain into a multidisciplinary tertiary pain clinic is an efficacious and scalable way to increase access to effective strategies that can increase self-efficacy and self-management.
