Are you a therapist with an interest in third wave approaches? Are you curious about concepts such as values and acceptance?   If so, then this webinar  is for you!

ACT  uses acceptance and mindfulness strategies, together with behaviour change strategies, to increase psychological flexibility.  It is concerned with helping individuals identify what is important to them and taking committed action in order that their behaviour is more consistent with their values.  ACT also promotes skills that help to change the relationship between an individual and their experience.  It is rapidly developing a wide-ranging evidence base across numerous areas of clinical practice.

This 2-hour clinical skills workshop is designed for practitioners working in physical/mental health care who want to enhance and develop their practice by developing skills in values procedures. The workshop will focus on helping practitioners develop their knowledge and skills around one aspect of the psychological flexibility model, namely helping clients to identify and clarify their values. This work helps clients work out what matters most to them in life and can inform goals and between session tasks, making them more meaningful and purposeful.

You will learn:

• To meaningfully differentiate values from goals
• Techniques to engage clients in exploring their values to drive purposeful life change
• Skills for promoting acceptance in the service of living a richer, fuller, and more meaningful life
• Skills to translate values into powerful goals and specific actions
