Anxiety - learn new ways of thinking about a client’s anxiety
'Anxiety – Learn New Ways of Thinking About a Client’s Anxiety and Creative Ways to Treat It' presented by Dr. David Flomenhaft.
Participants will learn a new and creative treatment innovation to stimulate insight, growth and change with their clients using process based therapy (PBT).
PBT is different from other treatment models as it is not a replacement for other psychological therapies. It’s a shift in focus. For example, somebody could do psychodynamic therapy or cognitive behavioural therapy in a process based way.
PBT is an evolving general psychological treatment model, developed by the creators of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and third wave cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). PBT is grounded in evolutionary science with an emphasis on individualized case conceptualizations to enhance client outcomes and prosperity.
Learning objectives:
1. Gain comprehension of the process based therapy model.
2. Learn how clients map their anxiety matrix and create a targeted treatment approach to reduce anxiety and improve coping skills.
3. Develop treatment progress tracking tools and learn to assess the worthiness of treatment interventions.
