Introduction à la thérapie du reconditionnement de la douleur (TRD)
Friday, July 3, 1:00 – 2:00pm (HAE)

Qu’est-ce que la TRD? (Pain Reprocessing Therapy) - La thérapie de reconditionnement de la douleur (TRD) est un ensemble de techniques psychologiques permettant de rééduquer le cerveau afin qu'il interprète et réponde correctement aux signaux du corps, rompant ainsi le cycle de la douleur chronique. Bien que divers traitements visent à gérer la douleur chronique, la TRD se distingue comme un traitement fondé sur des preuves pour éliminer la douleur.

Ce webinaire s’adresse aux personnes vivant avec des douleurs chroniques ainsi qu’aux professionnels de la santé.

Conférencière: Suzanne Deutsch est une travailleuse sociale et psychothérapeute au Service de traitement des douleurs chroniques du Centre des Sciences de santé de Kingston, en Ontario.

Join us Friday June 5th at noon (Eastern time) for this important and informative conversation about opioid tapering.

Opioid tapering is more than just a medication change. For many, it is a deeply personal and sometimes uncertain decision shaped by individual goals, concerns, and experiences. In this session, you will hear real insights from people who have been there, including what they feared, what they faced, and what helped. Together, we will unpack common misconceptions and share practical, evidence-informed approaches you can draw upon when considering changes in opioid use. We hope you will leave the session with greater clarity and perspective to help guide your personal decision-making about opioid use for chronic pain.
