ACT in Steps: A Transdiagnostic Manual for Learning Acceptance and Commitment Therapy de Michael P. Twohig

ACT in Steps: A Transdiagnostic Manual for Learning Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

Autor Michael P. Twohig, Michael E. Levin, Clarissa W. Ong
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 oct 2020

În ultimii ani, practica psihoterapiei a asistat la o schimbare de paradigmă prin ascensiunea „celui de-al treilea val” al terapiilor cognitiv-comportamentale, unde accentul s-a mutat de la modificarea conținutului gândirii către schimbarea relației pacientului cu propriile experiențe interne. Reținem că ACT in Steps apare într-un context în care peste 300 de studii clinice confirmă eficacitatea modelului ACT în tratarea unei game vaste de tulburări. Remarcăm abordarea clinică precisă a autorilor Michael P. Twohig, Michael E. Levin și Clarissa W. Ong, care transformă teoria complexă într-un protocol structurat, ușor de urmărit pas cu pas.

Spre deosebire de Learning ACT, 2nd Edition, care oferă o privire de ansamblu cuprinzătoare asupra competențelor clinice fundamentale, ACT in Steps aprofundează aplicarea practică imediată, fiind conceput ca un ghid de sesiune. Acolo unde alte lucrări se concentrează pe teoria limbajului (RFT), acest manual prioritizează intervenția: de la deznădejdea creativă și defuziunea cognitivă, până la acțiunea angajată bazată pe valori. Experiența de lectură este una tehnică și aplicată; nu este doar un text teoretic, ci un instrument de lucru care include fișe și exerciții ce rămân utile mult timp după finalizarea lecturii.

În contextul operei lui Michael P. Twohig, această carte reprezintă o evoluție naturală către generalizarea modelului. Dacă lucrările sale anterioare, precum Trichotillomania: Therapist Guide, aplicau principiile ACT pe patologii specifice și dificil de tratat, volumul de față extinde viziunea autorului către un cadru transdiagnostic universal. Recomandăm acest manual pentru rigoarea cu care Oxford University Press a structurat informația, oferind terapeuților începători sau experimentați o hartă clară pentru navigarea în siguranță prin procesele flexibilității psihologice.

De ce să citești această carte

Recomandăm această lucrare terapeuților care doresc să treacă de la înțelegerea teoretică a ACT la aplicarea ei clinică structurată. Cititorul câștigă un protocol clar de intervenție, sprijinit de materiale gata de utilizat în cabinet. Este resursa ideală pentru a învăța cum să ghidezi un client prin procesele de acceptare și mindfulness fără a pierde din vedere obiectivele terapeutice concrete, totul într-un format concis și fundamentat științific.

Descriere

ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy) can be applied to any psychological disorder that involves struggle with inner experiences. With over 300 randomized clinical trials supporting its effectiveness, ACT has seen rapid growth in popularity, and an increasing number of therapists are being trained in its use. As such, the demand for practical resources on providing ACT has never been greater. ACT in Steps is aimed at any therapist who wants to get familiar with ACT. Chapters walk therapists through a recommended sequence of ACT sessions, including creative hopelessness, control as the problem, acceptance, defusion, mindfulness, values, and committed action, and provide accompanying materials for clients. The book also provides information on assessment, case conceptualization, treatment planning, and intervention that therapists can use as a starting point for practicing ACT. Exercises and worksheets are included which will continue to be useful long after readers have achieved mastery of ACT. Designed to serve as a more structured framework from which therapists can learn and experiment with ACT concepts, ACT in Steps is suitable for anyone interested in applying ACT across a range of presentations, from graduate students seeing their first clients to clinicians with years of experience interested in learning about ACT for the first time.

Recenzii

This manual targets a central challenge of ACT
Wow! What a useful and clear guide to starting out in ACT! I wish I'd had this book when I was an ACT newbie
The authors are right: I have always said that the best way to begin actually doing ACT (after experiential contact with it and exposure to its principles) is to follow a step by step manual with several cases. That ensures you will practice all aspects of the approach and it distills the learning process down to smaller bits that are easier to handle. There are other beginning ACT manuals out there but this may now be my favorite. Thorough and yet simple, this well-written and wise volume gently pushes you forward to learn ACT, one step at a time. Highly recommended."
