acceptance, mindfulness, personal values,
spirituality
E.g.: ACT, CMT, MBCT, DBT, metacognitive
therapy (MCT), solution focused therapy,
schema focused therapy (SFT), EMDR
Alternative cognitive-behavioural approaches

Distancing oneself from negative thinking and recognizing that
thoughts don’t have to determine behaviours
Mindfulness = state of awareness, openness and receptiveness
Teaching through meditation
Skills

thoughts
Acceptance
Contact in present moment
o ACT
Simply noticing and accepting thoughts and feelings in present
moment
Psych. suffering bc of avoiding and thoughts
Handling pain and stress
o DBT
For mood swings, self-blaming behaviour and expression of anger
Individual + group component
o Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT)

Teaching to relate to depressive thoughts as mental events, rather
than as accurate reflections of reality in order to prevent relapse as a
result of dysphoric mood

o The way ppl feel is linked to the way they think
about a situation
o Patients reframe negative thinking patterns into
positive thoughts transforming thoughts will
result in positive actions and behaviour in difficult

focused, goal-and present-oriented therapy

Seeing thoughts as ideas about what is going on rather than as facts
"standing back" from your thinking to consider situations from
different viewpoints
o Basics
Feeling in response to a situation is determined how you perceive the
situation
Automatic thoughts (AT) “pop” into mind and shape the particular
emotion experienced and the resulting behaviour
Learning to evaluate ATs clarifying the nature of resulting emotion
and understanding why the situation was e.g. upsetting
Distorted thinking patterns of oneself, the world and the future
cognitive triad of depression
All-or-nothing
Disqualifying the positive
Mental fit
Questioning the rules and assumptions learned in childhood
More negative Core beliefs

advantages of
holding such beliefs

assumptions
Trying to find less extreme, more middle-ground views of
oneself
Performing behavioural experiments
Clinical case formulation

out the interconnectedness or causal relationship between them and the
