Overview
Behind any request for therapy, often unbeknownst to them, patients are asking for help to increase their resilience. When resilience is suboptimal, the mastery of strategies acquired in therapy and long-term changes are more difficult to achieve, and relapse is more probable. In this workshop, Dr. Munoz explains how to conceptualize resilience and explains how you can reinforce your patients’ strengths while creating an in-session environment where resilience can be practiced. She also presents concrete strategies to support and increase your patients’ resilience by practicing a growth mindset, counteracting cognitive biases, developing a healthy relationship with emotions, bringing physical arousal into the resilience zone, and developing and practicing powerful habits that support long-term resilience. Ultimately, this workshop will enable you to help your patients thrive even when faced with adversity.
