Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
for Migraine
CBT for chronic migraine management, particularly where stress and anxiety are contributing factors. Helps patients develop coping strategies and reduce the psychological burden of chronic pain.
How it works
CBT addresses the psychological and behavioural factors that perpetuate chronic migraine, including pain catastrophising, avoidance behaviours, and hypervigilance to symptoms. Reduces stress reactivity that lowers the migraine threshold.
What to watch for
Most effective for chronic migraine with significant psychological comorbidities. Requires access to a trained psychologist or therapist. Often most effective as part of a multidisciplinary approach alongside medical treatment.
