Objective: This article reviews the latest literature regarding chronic pain epidemiology and describes pain-specific psychological factors associated with the development and maintenance of chronic pain, mental health conditions that co-occur with chronic pain, and advances in the psychobehavioral treatment of chronic pain, including established treatments (ie, cognitive behavioral therapy [CBT], acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness-based stress reduction) and emerging treatments (ie, pain reprocessing therapy).

Latest Developments: In addition to CBT and acceptance and commitment therapy for pain, numerous other psychological treatment modalities have been integrated into chronic pain management, including mindfulness-based stress reduction, mindfulness meditation, chronic pain self-management, relaxation response, pain neuroscience education, biofeedback, hypnosis, and, more recently, integrative psychological treatment for centralized pain. This article gives an overview of these methods and contextualizes their use within the standard psychological treatment of chronic pain.
