Beyond Anxiety : Working with Shame

Description:
A common clinical issue for clients struggling with anxiety and mood disorders is shame. It is widely noted that not addressing shame can impact treatment readiness, engagement, and even outcomes. Outside of compassion focused exercises commonly integrated into treatment, there are few practical assessments and interventions for identifying and treating shame. In this workshop we will discuss the clinical significance of distinguishing adaptive shame from maladaptive shame and how it’s different from guilt. We will demonstrate how to functionally assess four specific domains shame commonly impacts. Lastly, through case examples, we will elaborate on cognitive behavioral and interpersonal interventions that go beyond integrating self-compassion into treatment.

Objectives:
At the end of this course, participants should be able to:

  • Integrate CBT and interpersonal interventions to reduce maladaptive shame.

  • Identify 4 domains of functioning where shame can present.

  • Distinguish adaptive and normal shame from maladaptive dysfunctional shame.

Target Audience: Introductory. For clinicians with little to no experience in the subject matter. For clinicians with experience who want to strengthen their skillset.

Cost: $20
