A pain management psychological evaluation is an assessment conducted by a licensed psychologist to determine a patient’s emotional readiness, coping strategies, and ability to benefit from procedures like spinal cord stimulation or nerve blocks.
These procedures involve lifelong care and behavioral changes. The evaluation helps ensure you're psychologically equipped to manage those changes, which supports better outcomes and reduces complications.
You’ll meet with a licensed mental health professional who will conduct a clinical interview and standardized assessments. Topics include your pain history, emotional well-being, coping skills, and understanding of the procedure.
