The Psychological Flexibility Clinicians Need (But Don't Have)

Pain management requires psychological flexibility—not just for patients, but for clinicians too. Bronnie Lennox Thompson reveals why embracing uncertainty builds better therapeutic relationships than projecting false certainty ever could.

What you'll learn:

→ Why the biopsychosocial model gets lip service but fails in practice

→ How to redirect your certainty from treatments to relationships

→ Guided discovery techniques for hands-on and active care

→ Why saying "I don't know" strengthens trust (not weakens it)

→ Essential skills: Motivational Interviewing + ACT for pain coaching

→ How to help patients discover freedom in their own world (not just your clinic)

Bronnie explains her shift from "biopsychosocial" to a multifactorial model, shares how clinicians struggle with uncertainty just like patients do, and breaks down the practical communication skills that transform you from expert-fixer to collaborative guide.

Whether you're struggling with big emotions in sessions, feeling stuck in the "certainty peddling" culture of CE courses, or ready to deepen your psychologically informed practice—this conversation offers permission, wisdom, and actionable strategies.

Perfect for:Physical therapists, occupational therapists, chiropractors, and any clinician working with people in chronic pain who want to practice with more authenticity, confidence, and human connection.
