ACT/CBS Background and Training: I have completed two 2-day workshops with Steve Hayes, two 2-day experiential workshops with Kelly Wilson, two 2-day experiential workshops with Robyn Walser and I attended several ACT Summer Institutes and Workshops.
ACT/CBS Experience: I began incorporating ACT principles and techniques into my clinical practice in 2002
Additional Information: My expertise is in couples therapy (Notarius & Markman, 1994). I have begun to incorporate ACT principles and techniques into my work with couples. The hallmark of relationship success involves interactional flexibility and the hallmark of relationship distress involves a high frequency of negative exchanges leading to interactional inflexibility. ACT is ideally suited to help couples build interactional flexibility.
