Summary

This study is for people with chronic low back pain who may also be feeling discouraged, frustrated, or depressed. This study is testing a new therapy that is designed to specifically help these patients foster a better self-image. We hope this therapy will help them feel less discouraged and depressed and, possibly, even help reduce their stress enough that they may feel less pain.
