Inhaltsangabe

Introduction. Part I: Theory. Thinking styles and behaviours that maintain
psychological distress are transdiagnostic. Transdiagnostic processes
overlap to form a core process that maintains distress. The phenomenon of
control - perception, comparison, and action. The control of perception -
not the control of behaviour. The negative feedback loop. Basic causes of
the loss of control. Hierarchies of Control - Going up and down levels.
Conflict. Reorganisation - a non-linear process of change. Awareness and
imagination. Arbitrary (or inflexible) control maintains distress via
conflict. Directing awareness to regain flexible control - a common factor
of CBT, effective therapy, and natural recovery. Interpersonal control.
Circular causality and model building. It's all perception. Part II:
Practice. The setting conditions: A problem that the client is willing to
talk about. The stance: To enable the client's flexible control as
efficiently as possible. Method of Levels goal one: asking about the
current problem. Method of Levels goal two: asking about disruptions. Using
the past, controlling the present and living for the future. "Green Apples"
- Working through problems without disclosure. What to say at the first
session. How much treatment and how often to provide it. A focus on
distress rather than symptoms. Outcome monitoring. Evaluating your own
practice. The therapeutic relationship - liberated exploration. Building
MOL into other therapies and therapeutic practices. Utilising control
theory in existing CBT. Interventions without talking - testing the
controlled variable.
