Pain management is a specialty branch of medicine focusing on the diagnosis and treatment of chronic pain. Our pain experts specialize in finding the exact cause of chronic pain and administering the most advanced and effective treatments to provide long-term pain relief and enhanced quality of life.
Pain is considered chronic if it has persisted for at least three months without signs of improvement. It can present itself in many different ways and can severely impact quality of life. Our team of specialists are clinically trained experts in diagnosing and treating virtually all chronic pain conditions.
Please join Twin Cities Pain Clinic in welcoming our new clinical psychologist.
Peg Maude-Griffin, Ph.D., L.P.
“I am committed to helping patients create a self-care plan that will give them confidence in their ability to decrease their pain, restore functioning, and improve their quality of life. My practice focuses on increasing patient’s understanding of centralized pain, teaching evidence-based coping skills to regulate central nervous system arousal and reducing fear of movement and pain”.
Peg is returning to TCPC to conduct preoperative psychological evaluations and provide consultation to the staff on behavioral health concerns.
In her free time Peg enjoys spending time with her husband and adult children. She also enjoys crocheting, binge watching Netflix, and taking her three dogs for long walks.
Education:
Bachelor of Psychology degree at St. Olaf College
Masters and Doctoral degrees in Clinical Psychology at Purdue University
Internship at the University of California, San Francisco School of Medicine, where she later served on the faculty of the Psychiatry department.
