#Therapist #quality is an often overlooked #mechanism in #pain treatment. Yet, higher quality therapists produce 10x better treatment response rates - check out our Focus Article in @TheJournal_Pain @DawnEhde 👇🏻
@dr_melissa_day @DawnEhde and colleagues found that of 134 trials of psychosocial treatments for chronic pain, only 9 report on therapist quality! Therapist quality may contribute to heterogeneity of treatment outcomes! @TheJournal_Pain #chronicpain

I'm thrilled to have presented my PhD research in a rapid communication session at The Australian Pain Society conference last month. Summarizing my findings into a 90-second speech was a fun and unique way to share my research with a wider audience @AusPainSoc #APS2023
