Summary

The purpose of this study is to learn more about Mindfulness based Group Cognitive Behavior Therapy (M-gCBT) as a treatment for Provoked Localized Vulvodynia (PLV). M-gCBT is a counseling technique that has been shown to reduce pain and anxiety with other medical conditions, including chronic pain conditions. The investigators wish to see if participation in M-gCBT course will help reduce anxiety, fear, and pain in women with PLV greater than education alone. Both techniques use a group setting including other women with PLV. "Mindfulness-Based Group Cognitive Behavior Therapy for Women with Localized Vulvodynia" is a study designed to learn more about the use of mindfulness based group cognitive behavior therapy for PLV pain and anxiety over education alone. Participants will be randomized to one of two groups: mindfulness based cognitive behavior therapy or group education seminars.
