(HS West 059090) Acceptance and Commitment Therapy: Activating Psychological Flexibility for Anxiety, Trauma ...
Tracking # 20-1074152
Course overview
Getting stuck when working with clients who are psychologically inflexible is a normal experience for therapists. But it can often feel like fighting a losing battle where, despite your most powerful clinical tools, there is little to no real progress. This often happens because, in addition to knowing WHAT to do to expand your client's behavioral repertoire, you also need the skills and confidence to know HOW to create the context for real learning to happen. While many clinicians learn and understand the basics about ACT, they often lack confidence when it comes to disrupting psychological inflexibility in session. In this 1-day training Dr. Aprilia West, MT, PCC, takes you all the way through the ACT model using process-based cognitive-behavioral strategies to accelerate psychological flexibility across a wide range of diagnoses and improve client outcomes. By learning to make expert-level therapeutic moves with ACT you can help clients decrease suffering and live a more meaningful life -- regardless of their diagnosis or level of functioning. This ACT workshop will help you enhance your ability to work with common clinical presentations including: Chronic Stress, Anxiety and Depression Emotional Reactivity and Emotional Dysregulation Unprocessed Trauma/PTSD Substance Abuse and Compulsive Behaviors Register Today!!
