In this video lesson you’ll learn:

• The giveaway that tells you there’s more to a client than fused narratives like “the world would be better off without me.”

• How fusion to a particular self-story can be functional for a client both in and outside of therapy

• How narratives like “I don’t know who I am” can function as an identity

• Why you should proceed gently when there is strong attachment to an identity

• How to erode the illusion of simplicity within a self-story to reveal the longing behind it

Working With Self and Identity in ACT is an on-demand course taught by Dr. Kelly Wilson, a co-founder of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and expert in helping others build lives of profound meaning.

Inside the course, Dr. Wilson will guide you through an in-depth exploration of working with self and identity that sidesteps theoretical debates to provide a practical, actionable approach.

You’ll see key principles demonstrated in teletherapy-style real plays. You’ll also benefit from Dr. Wilson’s unique insight via debriefs of the real plays and take part in experiential exercises to help you embody the work.

After completing the material, you’ll have the principles you need to help your clients develop a broad, flexible sense of self so they can live with freedom and agency.
