Outpatient VR (Virtual Reality)-Brain-gut Behavioral Therapies (BGBT) in Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)

This research study is being done to learn if a virtual reality (VR)-directed BGBT program is feasible and acceptable for patients to enhance pain treatment for patients with IBD. The study hypothesis include: * the study will achieve greater than 75% program completion and 75% study assessment completion * patients with IBD will find VR-directed BGBT acceptable as an outpatient pain treatment * outpatient VR-directed BGBT in IBD arm participants will report a greater reduction in pain scores, symptom burden, stress, depression, anxiety, and pain-related interference and an improvement in health-related quality of life * will have lower opioid requirements and healthcare utilization at 4-weeks follow-up compared to the E-TAU arm

Inclusion Criteria: * Adult outpatients (18 years and older) that carry a diagnosis of IBD and confirmed in the electronic health record (EHR) as receiving IBD-targeted treatment * IBD-targeted treatment include 5-aminosalicylates, thiopurines, biologics, or small molecules such as Janus kinase inhibitor (JAK) inhibitors or sphingosine-1-receptor modulators. * Self-report abdominal pain with an average severity ≥ 2 on a 0-10 pain scale over the last 24 hours, * Participants are willing and able to pick-up and drop-off VR equipment at University of Michigan (UM) Exclusion Criteria: * Patients that do not report pain (i.e., score\
