Chronic Urogenital Pain Clinical Trial
Official title:
Life-Stress Interview for Women With Chronic Urogenital Pain Conditions
The goal of this study is to test the efficacy, feasibility, and acceptability of providing an experiential assessment interview that targets health, and emotional and stressful experiences in a tertiary care setting specializing in women's urology.
In this randomized, controlled trial, the investigators will compare an interview condition to a wait-list control condition. The investigators hypothesize that helping individuals identify the links between their stress, emotions, and physical symptoms will likely increase their awareness and endorsement of the link between stress and physical symptoms, including a willingness to engage in stress management techniques. It is also expected that helping raise an individual's awareness about their symptoms, followed by an experience and expression of unexpressed emotion is likely to influence their physical and psychological well-being. ;
