  Topic: New Developments in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Contextual Approaches to Psychotherapy

  Presented by Dr. Ned Hunter

  Functional contextualism shares much in common with many approaches to psychotherapy and can enhance anyone’s approach including those who practice from an ACT perspective.  The newer approaches focus more on the function of behaviors, including thoughts and narratives.  Clinicians engage in careful observation of these functions as they occur in their meetings with clients and provide, through metaphors and other means, multiple exemplars which direct attention toward what is working and not working for them.   

  Edward “Ned” Hunter, Ph.D. is a clinical psychologist and Director of Training in the Division of Psychology at The University of Kansas Medical Center.  He has a love for training in cutting-edge developments in psychotherapy.

  Workshop Description

  For over two decades, The Trust has worked to educate and support psychologists in improving their risk management skills and strategies by providing live workshops, webinars, risk management consultation and expanding resources. The 10th workshop in our Sequence series will continue to emphasize more applied, integrated and strategic methods to help you protect yourself from adverse disciplinary and legal actions, and stay grounded in ethical principles and practices. The Trust Risk Management Consultants have culled subject matter from some 80,000 consultations provided to date to focus this workshop on problems practitioners often encounter. Topics will include how decision science can inform clinical and ethical decision-making; interjurisdictional practice challenges and navigating the PSYPACT era; complexities in structuring and conducting supervision; managing technology and privacy concerns in practice; and handling subpoenas and depositions.

  The workshop is designed for an intermediate level.

  Hourly 7.5 minute breaks
  1-hour lunch break at noon
