Brain-Gut Behavioral Therapies

Our team conducts research in brain-gut behavioral therapies. Our primary intervention teaches patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome a variety of strategies including relaxation, healthy thought patterns, sleep, stress management, and diet as a way to manage symptoms. The primary intervention was developed by Dr. Margaret Heitkemper and her team. Together we are enhancing the intervention by transitioning it to a digital format and expanding its reach to those with inflammatory bowel disease.
