Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

A myRAteam Member asked a question 💭
Kilmarnock, VA

Has anyone tried Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for help in dealing with the pain, exhaustion and all of the emotional tolls these things take on us?
I have an upcoming appointment with one, next week I think, I need help and hope she can give me some ideas, suggestions that will help.
Also, has any had experience with a pain management program?

Pain Management goes with a Counselor Appointment. Ambien is even a controlled medication that calls for Pain Management rules
