Arms

  • Experimental: Evaluating the Feasibility and Acceptability of Mindful Journey Prototype
    In this single arm trial, participants will complete surveys and interviews about experiences with opioid and other substance use, chronic pain, and treatments, and a brief timeline follow-back assessment for substance use. Participants will also be completing a training session to learn about the study procedure, and the mobile app platform. Participants will enter the intervention period (8-weeks) and complete 14 foundational modules throughout the intervention period using the Mindful Journey app. Daily brief check-in surveys will be completed via the app. Based on these survey responses, participants will receive brief, tailored momentary mindfulness coaching. Study staff will also conduct weekly phone check-ins to support engagement. The final visit will occur following the intervention period and the participant will complete a series of self-report batteries and participate in a brief exit interview to gather feedback and suggestions for improving the app.
