Overview:

Humans are especially adept at seeing problems in the future and trying to figure out how to fix them and looking into our past to see what went wrong in order to make better choices. The gift of humanity is in our ability to see where we’ve come from and what we can take from that experience to apply it to what may come and improve our standing. But, this gift can also be a curse. These tools can become traps. Worrying. Ruminating. Criticizing.  

Emotion regulation therapy (ERT) is a theoretically-derived, evidence-based, treatment that integrates principles from traditional and contemporary behavioral, meditative, and experiential treatments with basic and translational findings from affect science to offer a blueprint for improving intervention for individuals with chronic distress.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Discuss the challenges in understanding and treating conditions characterized by chronic distress 
  2. Describe how an affect science based unifying framework can improve understanding and treatment  
  3. Evaluate the efficacy and proposed targeted mechanisms of an emotion regulation therapy (ERT) that utilizes this framework
