EP17 Clinical Demonstration 09 - Hexadancing: A Demonstration of the Liberating Impact of Process-Focused Evidence-Based Therapy - Steven Hayes, PhD
Original Program Date :
Length: 57:37
Description:
Psychological flexibility is one of the most studied and supported set of mediational processes in clinical intervention science. In this demonstration I will explain and then demonstrate how a focus on evidence-based flexibility processes in therapy can free clinicians from the linear march of protocol-based approaches, and foster instead a vital dance of creative facilitation of change, played out in the moment to moment context of an empowering therapeutic relationship that is nevertheless thoroughly evidence-based.
Educational Objectives:
- Describe the six psychological flexibility processes.
- Be able to state at least one means of targeting each of the psychological flexibility processes.
