About this listen

Do you like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and feel like your keep missing the nail?

Want to:

- Get grounded in the foundation stones?

- See contingencies?

- Add context?

- Be a functional contextualist? (and know what that means)

This is a new podcast that seeks to excavate the roots of the contextual behavioral sciences, so that the fruit that us clinician deliver is as pristine as possible. It's a sequential experience that takes non-congenital behaviorists beyond the 6 core processes, and just saying "milk, milk, milk". Many of us that come to ACT/CBS don’t get past the razzle and dazzle...Well, walk with me on this quest and lets play with the boring that the razzle dazzle is built on.

- New episodes published weekly starting 7/20/2020

- Experiential work in (just about) every episode

    I am joined by the marvelous Temple Morris, LCSW-C. She is a therapist/consultant in private practice at True North in Bethesda, Maryland, USA. She is a mover and shaker in the ACT community especially in the psychedelic special interest group. In this episode we talk abut helping clients prepare for their plant medicine journeys, and to coach people to use ACT processes on these inner voyages. We talk about the entheogenic/psychedelic renaissance. Also, we discuss how our own explorations have informed our work and lives.

  • #33 Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy w/ Henry Whitfield

    #33 Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy w/ Henry Whitfield
    Mar 11 2022

    #33 with Henry Whitfield. We discuss his recent publication (https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyt.2021.727572/full), issues of self and content/process/context, and finish with a real-play demonstration of Henry leading me through a integration session.

    Henry is a peer reviewed ACT trainer. He has written, co-written and edited training manuals for ACT, TIR and FAP. As a visiting research fellow at Regents University London, he focuses his research on the development of ACT-consistent models for psychedelic-assisted therapy. His psychedelic plant medicine path has changed how he does psychotherapy especially with self-concept issues.
