Terapia akceptacji i zaangażowania (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, ACT) to obecnie jedna z najpopularniejszych metod psychoterapii i treningu psychologicznego, należąca do tzw. trzeciej fali terapii behawioralnej. Znana jest od 1982 roku, kiedy to amerykański psycholog kliniczny Steven C. Hayes zaprezentował po raz pierwszy założenia tego nurtu terapeutycznego. Na czym dokładnie polega? Jakie są jej założenia? Na jakiej technice się opiera? Co na temat jej skuteczności mówią badania naukowe? I co najważniejsze – do kogo jest skierowana, a komu niekoniecznie pomoże? O szczegółach związanych z tą modalnością terapeutyczną oraz o jej dostępności w Polsce opowie psycholog psychoterapeuta Bartosz Kleszcz w rozmowie z psycholożką, psychoterapeutką i seksuolożką Zofią Szynal.

In this episode: Uwe and Jens Kruger sit down for an interview at the 2021 MerleFest autograph tent. Uwe and Jens were born and raised Germany and Switzerland. They began singing and playing instruments at a very young age, as music was an important part of their family's life. At ages eleven and twelve years old they were already performing regularly after debuting publicly in the spring of 1973.In 1979, Jens and Uwe left home and worked as a performing duo on the streets throughoutEuropean cities; with Uwe playing guitar, and Jens playing the banjo. In 1981 they received aCBS recording contract with their band Rocky Road. In 1982 Uwe and Jens split up, with Uwebecoming the leader of a country music band. Jens came to American and was granted theopportunity with Bill Monroe to become the first European banjo player to be featured on theGrand Ole Opry. Jens returned to Switzerland and began working in the local music scene as abanjo player, while Uwe became the band leader for many country music singers throughoutEurope. In 1988 they reunited and began to focus on their fundamental love of American roots music. In 1989 the two brothers met up with Joel Landsberg, a native from New York City, whom had recently moved to Switzerland. Joel is a classically and jazz trained bassist, who had been performing since the early 1970's as well. Jens and Uwe began hiring Joel to perform with them in a variety of bands, playing over 200 shows a year on average. In 1995, Joel became an integral part of the group and it was from that point forward the group decided to focus exclusively on performing as the Kruger Brothers.In 1997, the Kruger Brothers made their debut in America playing for audiences at MerleFest,the Wilkesboro festival named in honor of Doc Watson's son, Merle. They were big fans of Doc Watson's music, and they felt at home in the mountains of North Carolina. The trio moved to the United States in 2003.The traditional style of music that once dominated their performances slowly gave way to more of their own compositions. They increasingly incorporated elements of European folk and classical music into their performances, molding it into a unique one-of-a-kind style. Since then, the Kruger Brothers have performed at countless music festivals and performing arts venues throughout the United States, Canada, Australia and Europe. They have performed with symphony orchestras all over the world, often debuting original classical compositions that Jens has been commissioned to write by the National Endowment of the Arts, Chamber Music America, the Banff Center of Canada, among several others. They have been honored with numerous national and international awards and have been inducted into various music Hall of Fames. They have performed with the likes of Earl Scruggs, Doc Watson, Willie Nelson, Ricky Scaggs, and many more. In addition to their performances at MerleFest, they have brought much recognition to Wilkes County through their annual festival, Carolina in the Fall, named after one of their songs, which has hosted some of the best of North Carolina's folk, bluegrass, roots, and acoustic bands. The Kruger Brothers host an annual Music Academy in Wilkes County that draws participants from all over the world who enjoy musical instruction and amazing interactions with these highly sought after professionals. The Kruger Brothers are ambassadors of the music and culture, emphasizing on tradition and innovation, of the region they now call home.For more information visit https://www.krugerbrothers.com/

The month of September is Pain Awareness Month. In years past, I've done lots of different things for Pain Awareness Month. I've held online summits, which hosted 30 plus experts. I've done courses for professionals and people with pain. In 2021, I was trying to figure out, "What are we not talking about in the chronic pain space that we need to bring more awareness around? What should we be talking about? What can we bring some more disruption around to disrupt our pain care world out there that isn't always as effective for people with chronic pain?" As I started to reflect on my practice and the patients I've seen over many years I've been treating patients looking at research, I said, "We need to talk more about the link between trauma and chronic pain." This September, I've done a couple of different things to raise awareness around the trauma-pain connection. The first is I've done lots of different posts on my Instagram handle. If you can head on over to Instagram and find me, my handle is easy. It's @DrJoeTatta. You can find me on Instagram. Like and follow me. I have lots of great posts and sliders that are perfect for you if you're a practitioner or someone with chronic pain and you want to learn more about the trauma-pain connection. The second is I partnered with a physical therapist this September. His name is Dr. Jeremy Fletcher. He is teaching our first Trauma-Informed Pain Care Course. You can find that by going to IntegrativePainScienceInstitute.com. Head on over to the Courses tab and scroll down and you'll find the Trauma-Informed Pain Care course. That's open now and you can register. It's available for CEs as well as CEUs for physical therapists and other licensed health professionals. It's about seven hours long and has lots of great content. Jeremy is a physical therapy educator. He works for a company called Veterans Recovery Resources, which is a not-for-profit organization, which helps veterans with both their physical well as mental health needs. He is a dad, coach and also a survivor of trauma himself. He is a veteran of the Afghanistan War. He brings lots of professional as well as personal input to this topic. I've learned so much from Jeremy. He and I lectured in 2020 at Combined Sections at the APTA National Conference. I'm going to lecture again in 2021 at the national conference, which is in February. You can meet both of us there if you're around. Finally, I've reached out and partnered with people like our guest, Dr. Robyn Walser, who is an ACT-trained clinical psychologist. She is one of the world's leading experts in treating trauma and PTSD. She is the Director of TL Psychological and Consultation Services. She is also an Assistant Professor at the University of California, Berkeley and works with the National Center for PTSD. As a licensed clinical psychologist, she maintains international training, consulting as well as therapy practice. Robyn is well-known as an expert in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, specifically for the treatment of trauma and PTSD. She has co-authored seven books, including a book on Learning ACT. Robyn's work spans traumatic stress, depression, substance use and chronic pain. She has written research articles, chapters and books on these topics. She has been doing ACT training and workshops since 1998. Robyn is incredible. I've seen her in action at a couple of national conferences through ACBS. I've also read a couple of her books. They're great. Head on over to Amazon and make sure you check out all of her books. Dive into this episode, read the topics that she and I are talking about around chronic pain and trauma, see if it resonates with you and think to yourself, "How much do I understand about trauma, PTSD, adverse childhood experiences and the social-political contextual aspects of trauma?" All these are important factors when it comes to treating people with chronic pain. Let's begin this episode and meet Dr. Robyn Walser.   Love the show? Subscribe, rate, review, and share!

Smart, accomplished, and a religious wife and mother? Do such women exist? I thought a traditional life was an impediment to a woman being successful in the world outside her doorstep. According to the powers that be, these two worlds are wildly at odds. Enter Amy Coney Barrett, President Trump's nominee for the Supreme Court, who comes along to put that narrative to rest. If confirmed, Barrett will replace feminist icon Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and the left can't stand it. They're positively green with envy. How can a woman look as graceful and as feminine as Barrett, with a husband and seven kids to boot, and somehow make it to the Supreme Court? To make matters worse, Barrett says things like this: “What greater thing can you do than raise children? That's where you have your greatest impact on the world.” It's enough to drive a feminist mad. Here to talk with me about why the left really hates Amy Coney Barrett is Joy Pullmann, executive editor of The Federalist, as well as a happy wife and mother of six children. IN THIS EPISODE: 4:00 How and why ACB is the polar opposite of Ruth Bader Ginsberg 5:00 Why ACB's very existence repudiates the left's view of women and how her nomination has brought what it means to be family oriented to the forefront 6:10 How women have used abortion as a means to get ahead in their careers since babies/family don't “fit” into a career-focused woman's life 7:45 How unlikely it is for a typical woman to have ACB's career and as many kids as she has. Suzanne discusses how women “having it all” at once is a myth and how ACBs support system (husband, in laws/family) helped her become who she is today. 10:55 – 13:00 What it takes to have “balance” in your life and the different components such as giving up social media, going out to parties, having helpful in-laws, does the husband/wife work full-time?, etc. 13:00 The benefit of having a large family and how older kids help raise younger kids 15:20 Young women need to understand that they shouldn't look at ACB and think this is attainable for most women and how a lot of women do not want the kind of career that she has 16:50 –18:20 Suzanne talks about her frustration with some women on the right who think women can rise to the top of their profession and have many children at the same time 18:24 Women on the left want government to raise your kids so you don't have to orchestrate your life 19:25 Joy describes that when she gets tired, she often gets frustrated with her husband and how she has to put that into perspective by taking stock of how she can improve her day-to-day to make it easier. 20:35 How government-run daycare is not a good plan and how the left's narrative regarding working women fosters the resentment that men aren't doing their fair share 21:20 – 22:30 Suzanne and Joy talk about COVID-19 divorce 22:30 How ACB embraced marriage and motherhood alongside her professional endeavors, which is atypical for women in politics 23:10 – 26:00 How the left uses The Handmaid's Tale imagery and the double standards that come along with that 26:05 ACB says the greatest thing you can do is raise children and how that is rarely acknowledged by any woman in power 26:40 Joy describes the impact you make on the world raising children 27:30 ACB is a happy woman, and it drives the left crazy. Even without her professional success, she would be happy because of her faith and her family. 28:15 –30:08 The left constantly smears religious people as uneducated and why that narrative is a manipulative power-play and MORE! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

We are honored to have the opportunity to interview Matthew Skinta, PhD, ABPP. Dr. Skinta is a board-certified clinical health psychologist and an assistant professor in the Department of Psychology at Roosevelt University. He is also a peer-reviewed Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) Trainer, a certified Functional Analytic Psychotherapy (FAP) Trainer, and a certified Compassion Cultivation Training (CCT) teacher. Dr. Skinta is renowned within the ACBS community for his clinical & research endeavors with respect to sexual & gender minority (SGM) individuals.Within this episode, we discuss Dr. Skinta’s own personal clinical and research journey. We discuss his observations regarding the role of the contextual behavioral sciences in examining the lived experience of SGM individuals as well as his personal aspirations for ongoing empirical priorities with respect to these populations. Per usual, this episode gets personal as we examine the role of minority stress plays within the context of the behavior of both client and clinician. Without a doubt, this is a MUST LISTEN episode! NOTE: this episode does include language that is explicit...of course! Behavioral science, personal anecdotes, and unabashed vulnerability! What a treat… Dr. Skinta’s Bio: “I am board certified in clinical health psychology, reflecting my background in integrated medical settings, HIV/AIDS-related work, and a respect for the ways that our physical health reflects and affects psychological well-being. I have specific clinical experience and expertise working with sexual orientation and gender identity, HIV/AIDS, chronic pain, and chronic depression.”“My research interests are primarily focused on the interpersonal costs of minority stress upon sexual and gender minority (SGM) individuals. Histories of shame, family rejection, stigma, and concealment can lead to patterns of challenge and barriers to connection. I am interested in those approaches that might promote vulnerability, acceptance, and self-compassion in ways that nurture social connections and the health that comes with safety in our relationships.”“Finally, contextual behavioral psychotherapies and the underlying assumptions of those therapies, including Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, Functional Analytic Psychotherapy, and Compassion-Focused Therapy, are the threads that run through both my research and clinical interests.” Dr. Skinta’s Faculty Page: https://www.roosevelt.edu/academics/faculty/profile?ID=mskintaDr. Skinta’s Books: Skinta, M., Curtin, A., & Pachankis, J.

Specifically, he breaks down each ACT process into a simple to understand Problem Behavior / Replacement Behavior paradigm. So if you've been struggling to pick up the ACT lingo, this is the episode for you! Jonathan provides tangible scenarios of how to conceptualize the ACT "hexaflex," and how BCBA's can incorporate these concepts into their practice, especially in the context of interacting with parents. In short, he makes a compelling case for BCBA's to learn more about this area of our field. We talked about a ton of resources in this episode.

For this episode of 'Metaphors for Life', I met up with David Gillanders from Edinburgh University to talk about the use of metaphors in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and in particular his invention of the sailing boat metaphor. Whilst often helpful in the delivery of psychological therapy with clients, metaphors can also show up in the context of clinical supervision; both for case conceptualisation as well as usefully exploring the struggles that therapists have themselves! "Talking about something else, other than the problem, although you're still talking about the problem (because it's linked to the problem), can lead to fresh perspectives, and a loosening up around how to deal with the problem, and trying out different kinds of strategies." David Gillanders is a Chartered Clinical Psychologist and Academic Director of the Doctoral training programme in Clinical Psychology at the University of Edinburgh. He is also an ACBS peer-reviewed ACT trainer, and delivers training throughout the UK and internationally. Find out more on his university webpage: www.ed.ac.uk/profile/david-gillanders

In Session 6 of The Behavioral Observations Podcast, Dr. D.J. Moran, BCBA-D joins me to provide an overview of one of my favorite topics in Behavior Analysis: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). D.J. has been a practitioner of ACT for over 20 years; applying these concepts across a range of applications that include supporting children and parents with Autism, providing therapy in mental health settings, and more recently, using the ACT model to help corporations improve their safety and leadership initiatives. He’s also a fellow podcaster to boot!   In this podcast, D.J. tells us how he first encountered ACT, describes the core features and concepts of the ACT model, and discusses how ACT can help support caregivers of individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders.   While D.J. is the author of many peer reviewed articles and chapters, listeners to the podcast would do well to check out his book, Building Safety Commitment, which provides one of the most accessible blueprints of the ACT model I have seen. Even though the book is about behavioral safety, one can easily transfer the ACT concepts to school, clinic, and home settings.   As D.J. notes in the podcast, listeners who want to learn more about ACT should head over to contextualscience.org, the internet home of the Association for Contextual Behavioral Science. Joining the ACBS provides access to a wealth of resources for all things ACT.   If you enjoy this show, please leave a rating and review in iTunes. It only takes a minute and it ensures that the message of Behavior Analysis stands out amongst all the other podcasts that are out there.   Finally, The Behavioral Observations Podcast is sponsored by bSci21.org. I encourage listeners to check out bSci21.org as Todd Ward (another ACT expert) and his contributing writers continue to publish great articles that discuss Behavior Analytic principles and applications in a fun and accessible format.

You might need some references for this version of Functionally Speaking.  The intro alludes to a Washington Post article called Pearls Before Breakfast that I found particularly condescending and is related to a series of posts on the ACT Listserve called “A Violinist in the Metro” from March 2008.   During the discussion about mindfulness in the podcast, you might like to have the Inflexahex Case Conceptualization Worksheet available, and it is available at the ACT in Practice website.   Finally, back in the mid-1990's my metal band, SONIPATH, wrote a song called ACT.

In dieser Fall-Kontroll-Studie wurden präoperative, intra- und postoperative Risikofaktoren sowie Langzeitergebnisse bei Patienten, die sich nach fehlgeschlagener PTCA einer notfallmäßigen aorto-koronaren Bypassoperation (ACB) unterziehen mussten, untersucht. Zur Beurteilung des Mortalitätsrisikos und des Langzeitverlaufs nach notfallmäßiger Bypassoperation diente ein im selben Zeitraum operiertes elektives Vergleichskollektiv mit einem vergleichbaren Risikoprofil. Ein weiterer Aspekt dieser Untersuchung galt der Einschätzung einer erhöhten perioperativen Myokardinfarktinzidenz in der Notfallgruppe. Darüber hinaus wurde untersucht, ob die Verwendung der A. mammaria interna (IMA) die operativen und mittelfristigen Ergebnisse bei den notfallmäßigen ACB-Operationen nach fehlgeschlagener PTCA beeinflusst. Der Gebrauch der IMA wird in der elektiven aorto-koronaren Bypassoperation wegen der vorteilhaften Langzeitergebnisse empfohlen. Bei notfallmäßiger ACB bevorzugen jedoch viele Operateure die Revaskularisation vor allem mit venösen Grafts, da die Operationszeiten kürzer und die initialen Flussraten höher sind. Von Januar 1990 bis März 1993 wurde bei 56 Patienten aus 7 kardiologischen Zentren 1h bis 114 h (durchschnittlich 7,5h) nach fehlgeschlagener PTCA eine notfallmäßige ACB durchgeführt. Diese Patienten wurden auf bestimmte Risikofaktoren und auf Kriterien einer anatomisch ungünstigen Stenose für eine PTCA hin untersucht. Als Kriterien für die Beurteilung einer ungünstigen Stenose galten: langstreckige Stenosen, Verschluss eines anderen Hauptgefäßes, Tandemstenosen, exzentrische Stenosen, Stenosen in oder an einer Gefäßkrümmung/Gefäßaufzweigung und distal gelegene Stenosen. 23,2% der Patienten wiesen ein Kriterium, 41,1% zwei, 8,9% drei und 3,6% vier Kriterien auf. Bei nur 13 Patienten (23,2%) wurden die Stenosen als ideal für eine PTCA eingestuft. Alle Patienten unterzogen sich 14,6 +/- 8,2 Monate post operationem einer echokardiographischen und anamnestischen Nachuntersuchung. Das operative Mortalitätsrisiko nach fehlgeschlagener PTCA war gegenüber den elektiven ACBs signifikant erhöht (10,7% vs. 1,8%; p
