#ACBSUKROI2025 🙏

#ACBSUK&ROI ❤️ a marvelous sharing of minds and hearts enjoyed through this brilliant event, with learning and laughter.

🧵1/4 Enjoying Steve Hayes & Stefan Hofmann's work on a process-based approach to therapy in ‘Beyond the DSM’: amzn.eu/d/dax4wKr

NiklasTörneke & Sandro Voi: 'Using metaphor in group settings, within contextual behavioural therapy'

Jess Kingston: 'Extending contextual understandings of paranoia and mindfulness-based interventions for psychosis: findings from basic and translational research'

Risca Soloman: 'Using Contextual Behaviour Science everywhere, all at once: Applying RFT to all levels of an interdisciplinary therapy'

Jennifer Kemp: 'Building interoceptive awareness as a foundation of effective ACT interventions'

Rikke Kjelgaard: 'Uncovering the process and practice of Creative Hopelessness'

And so to the conference - some slides from Joe Oliver: 'Exploring the history of ACBS UK and Ireland to
strengthen community belonging and purpose'

But the real wildlife was to be found at night, Saturday evening at the Follies show - see here trailed by president Louise McHugh, good sports Henry Whitfield (in foreground for spoof on psychedelics) & Ross White flexing with leg puller Nic Hooper, and a great routine w. Rich Bennett & Ray Owen 🤩

...including street green parakeets 😀

Surprised and awed by encounters with nature in the heart of the city on the way to and from the conference...

Wonderful weekend of learning, reflecting, connecting, and sharing fun at the UK ACT Acceptance and Commitment Therapy conference 16-17th November 2024 💖 acbsukandireland.com / #acbsukroi / #acbsukroiLondon
