Psychotherapy for Pelvic Pain

Psychotherapy for pelvic pain involves the use of psychological methods to treat and manage chronic pain in the pelvic area. This type of pain can have various causes, including physical and emotional factors. Nearly half of patients with chronic pelvic pain also experience psycho-emotional disorders.

How Psychotherapy Can Help:

Understanding Emotional Causes: Some types of pain may be caused or exacerbated by stress, anxiety, depression, and other psychological factors.

Stress Management: Stress can worsen pain sensations, so developing stress management skills can help reduce pain intensity.

Changing Pain Perception: Psychotherapy can help you change how you interpret and respond to pain, which can decrease its perception.

Support and Advice: With chronic pain, support is crucial in coping with daily challenges.

Methods of Psychotherapy:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Actively used to teach patients new skills that help them change their perception of pain.

Mindfulness and Meditation: These practices contribute to reducing stress and improving overall well-being.

Psychoanalysis and Other Psychological Practices: Help better understand psychosomatic aspects of your condition and find ways to address them.
