Alan Gordon, LCSW, is the founder of the Pain Psychology Center, a leading treatment facility for chronic pain, and a faculty member at USC. After struggling with chronic pain for years, Gordon developed Pain Reprocessing Therapy PRT, the first approach to be validated by a randomized controlled trial. His work, alongside co-author Alon Ziv, stems from a deep personal and professional mission to help others unlearn their pain and reclaim their lives, a journey detailed in The Way Out.
