Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to develop and test a new program called MBCT-TIP for adults with chronic pain and a history of intimate partner violence (IPV). MBCT-TIP combines mindfulness-based cognitive therapy with a trauma-informed approach to pain.

The main question this study aims to answer is:

Will MBCT-TIP be feasible and acceptable for adults with chronic pain and IPV histories?

Researchers will compare MBCT-TIP to a control - Health Enhancement Program (HEP). Comparing the two will help researchers see whether MBCT-TIP is feasible and acceptable for people with chronic pain and a history of IPV.

Participants will:

Attend 8 weekly group sessions, held in person, lasting about 1 hour each. Complete study assessments before starting the program, after finishing the program, and 3 months later

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy for Trauma-Informed Pain (MBCT-TIP)

MBCT-TIP (MBCT for Trauma-Informed Pain)-a primary-care intervention for adults with chronic primary pain and IPV histories-retaining MBCT core elements while adding trauma-specific content to improve effectiveness and feasibility/acceptability.

BEHAVIORAL

Health Enhancement Program (HEP)

Health Enhancement Program (HEP) is an evidence-based intervention consisting of 8 weekly group-format sessions, each lasting 1 hour. It has been validated in previous studies for testing the efficacy of mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) while focusing on non-mindfulness goals such as physical activity, sleep, nutrition, and social support.
