Venue

This is a virtual event, accessible online and over the phone. Access instructions will be provided after registration.

Description

Clinicians often wonder how to help clients to recognize what matters to them and to increase their engagement in their lives. This webinar focuses on the values clarification and values-based actions component of acceptance-based behavioral therapy, an evidence-based treatment that incorporates mindfulness and acceptance and commitment therapy elements to target generalized anxiety and related disorders. Participants learn how to 1) help clients to clarify what matters to them, including addressing common barriers to this process, and 2) facilitate engagement in values-based actions, including addressing internal and external barriers to meaningful actions. Original webinar date: March 8, 2024. CC.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Identify common barriers to clarifying values and methods for bypassing them to find underlying values.
  2. Identify approaches to helping clients to engage in meaningful action in the face of challenging contexts, including systemic oppression.
