Internet-based acceptance and commitment therapy for transdiagnostic treatment of comorbid posttraumatic stress disorder and chronic pain: A development pilot study.

Objective: Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) is a transdiagnostic, behavioral treatment focusing on common processes behind different diagnoses. Internet-based treatment programs can improve access to treatment and easily be integrated into the individual's life.

Method: This single-arm, pre-post-follow-up pilot study examined the acceptability, safety, and effectiveness of internet-based ACT (iACT) for participants with comorbid posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and chronic pain treated at a tertiary pain clinic.
