Padesky / Mooney Workshop

Applying Client Creativity to Recurrent Problems
Constructing Possibilities and Tolerating Doubt

Christine A. Padesky, PhD
Kathleen A. Mooney, PhD
Newport Beach, California USA

June 20, 2000
Catania, Sicily

Workshop Description

This workshop proposes that clients with recurrent problems are ideal for innovative interventions and shows how therapists can engage these clients' creativity to construct new possibilities for change.

Through didactic presentations, clinical demonstrations, clinical vignettes, participant role plays and guided exercises, attendees will learn how to help clients with recurrent problems devise creative solutions, engage in meaningful and constructive behavioral experiments, and maintain changes over time.

This workshop is specifically designed for intermediate to advanced cognitive therapists who are familiar with cognitive therapy protocols and skilled in case conceptualization, and identifying and testing automatic thoughts, underlying assumptions, and core beliefs.

Workshop Presenters

Christine A. Padesky, Ph.D., co-founder and Director of the Center for Cognitive Therapy, Newport Beach, California, is Past-President of the International Association of Cognitive Psychotherapy and Distinguished Founding Fellow of the Academy of Cognitive Therapy. She is co-author of leading cognitive therapy books for clients (Mind Over Mood) and therapists (Clinician's Guide to Mind Over Mood, Cognitive Therapy with Couples and Cognitive Therapy with Personality Disorders) and produces audio and video cognitive therapy training tapes (described on her web-site: www.padesky.com).

Dr. Padesky's training materials and workshops demonstrate the integration of cognitive therapy protocols and research with creative clinical processes and interventions.

Kathleen A. Mooney, Ph.D., co-founder and Associate Director of the Center for Cognitive Therapy, Newport Beach, California, is a Founding Fellow of the Academy of Cognitive Therapy and former editor of the International Cognitive Therapy Newsletter and the IACP News.

ARCHIVAL INFORMATION

 

Padesky Keynote

The Client as Architect
of Change

Christine A. Padesky, Ph.D.
Newport Beach, California USA

June 21, 2000
Catania, Sicily

Dr. Padesky takes the audience on a brief tour of the themes introduced in her keynote addresses at prior international conferences and humbly acknowledges that they largely miss what she considers the most critical and intriguing aspect of successful therapy: the client as architect of change.

By evaluating cognitive therapy from the perspective of a client, we gain new insights into some of our professional debates (i.e., strict use of protocols versus purely constructivistic approaches) and creative ideas for the future of our field.

Attend this main conference lecture to learn why ambiguity and doubt might be the most welcomed states of mind in cognitive therapy's future.
