About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate how an acceptance based internet-delivered psychological treatment (IACT) tailored to patients with chronic pain is perceived, and if it meets the needs and expectations of those enrolled.

The main question it aims to answer is:

What are the expectations of patients with chronic pain prior to IACT treatment, and how do they experience IACT during and after treatment?

Participants will be offered a 7 week long treatment with therapist support. They will be interviewed before treatment starts, once during treatment, and again after treatment is completed.
