The Empowered Relief™ class was developed by pain psychologist colleague and researcher, Dr. Beth Darnall at Stanford University.

Dr. Darnall is a member of the CDC Opioid Workgroup and has published a number of books and important treatment tools.

Your instructor's experience includes over 10 years of providing cognitive behavioral psychotherapy for chronic pain in primary care, mental health, and substance use treatment settings, partnering with the American Chronic Pain Association and Veterans, and working alongside interdisciplinary physicians and providers in palliative and hospice care.

Please note, this is an education, one-session, skills-based class that does not involve establishment of treatment. The format is a lecture-based webinar delivered virtually through Zoom to participants.
