2016 Indianapolis, Indiana, USA –  one day / 6 hour workshop

For complete workshop information & registration, visit the sponsor’s site: IndyCognitive.org/seminars/

Join PADESKY on April 28, 2016 and experience all the reasons why 350 therapists in Toronto gave Dr. Padesky a standing ovation at the end of her Boot Camp 2.0 workshop when it was launched there in November 2015.

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION

Evidence-based practice requires therapists to teach mood-specific skills and follow different treatment guidelines depending upon the mood targeted. Clients experience high rates of comorbidity and so there is an advantage to supplementing therapy with a workbook like Mind Over Mood, 2nd Edition, 2016 (MOM2) which addresses a variety of moods and teaches both general and mood-specific skills. This workshop shows therapists how to maintain fidelity to treatment protocols by assigning MOM2 chapters in different orders depending upon the moods addressed. Therapists learn which mood-specific skills are linked to enduring treatment efficacy for depression, anxiety disorders, anger, guilt and shame.

In addition, Padesky demonstrates how to navigate common obstacles that arise during use of: behavioral activation and thought records (depression); fear ladders, exposure, identification of safety behaviors, and behavioral experiments (anxiety); assertive communication and forgiveness (anger); seriousness ratings, responsibility pies, reparations and self-forgiveness (guilt and shame). Guidelines are presented for how and when to add methods drawn from acceptance therapies, mindfulness and positive psychology to these classic CBT approaches. Participants learn evidence-based guidelines for client skills practice, when certain interventions can be counter-therapeutic, and a 3-step plan for relapse management.

Participants in this workshop will be among the first USA therapists to learn directly from Dr. Padesky about how to link the new version of Mind Over Mood with evidence based treatment protocols.

Workshop learning is enhanced through live clinical demonstrations, structured participant role-plays, discussions and exercises designed to apply the principles learned to clinical case material.

Learn how to use MOM2 in therapy to work more effectively with depression, anxiety disorders, anger, guilt, and shame.

WHAT IS MOM2?

MOM2 (Mind Over Mood, 2nd Edition, 2016) was released October 15, 2015, and is a fully revised and updated 2nd Edition. It is significantly different from the first edition in both structure and content and includes new and wholly revised chapters as well as 25 new worksheets.

• expanded sections on anxiety management including fear ladders, safety behaviours, imagery, mindfulness and acceptance methods
• integration of evidence-based methods drawn from positive psychology such as gratitude diaries and happiness ratings
• new chapters on goal setting, relapse management
• an expanded chapter on using behavioral experiments to test assumptions

DO I NEED A COPY FOR THIS WORKSHOP? 

MOM2 will be referenced extensively during the workshop so we recommend that you bring a copy or share one on site with a colleague. Familiarity with the workbook is not required prior to attending.

MOM2 is available in many local bookstores and from online booksellers such as Amazon.com. It is also available as an ebook in “print replica” format from Amazon and in PDF format from the publisher, Guilford Press.
