| Abstract: Andrew Busch, a doctoral graduate student, will present a therapy case of a depressed client with significant interpersonal problems. The panel will provide suggestions on how to conceptualize and treat this case from the standpoint of Functional Analytic Psychotherapy (FAP) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). The majority of time will be spent discussing possibilities for performing ACT techniques within a FAP case conceptualization. Some time will also be devoted to a discussion of specific therapeutic situations where FAP and ACT theory may diverge. |
