Women, aged 18 years or over, who experience symptoms of persistent pelvic pain, waitlisted for the Royal Hobart Hospital Persistent Pelvic Pain Clinic. Inclusion criteria for all women will include information regarding diagnostic classification (e.g., diagnostic category, disease stage/classification) and a confirmed diagnosis of persistent pelvic pain provided by the RHH Gynaecology staff.
Exclusion criteria for all women will be current engagement in group psychological treatment, unconfirmed diagnosis of persistent pelvic pain, current experience of psychosis, substance abuse, mania, or suicidal ideation and intent. Women with significant cognitive deficits will also be excluded due to the ethical requirements of informed consent and a potential inability to self-select and due to the cognitive nature of the specific interventions. Pregnant women will be excluded to minimise the possibility of an inability to complete the program due to pregnancy-related factors. However, due to ethical and professional duty of care, women who conceive while completing the program will be able to continue.
