- Dr. Barlow invites participants into an open, clinically grounded discussion of a unified approach to emotional disorders. The session explores how avoidance of intense emotions fuels anxiety, depression, OCD, and related problems, and how treatment can work more effectively by targeting emotional experience itself.

- Short Description:
- This point–counterpoint session examines whether neuroticism is a fixed temperament or a treatable process, and what that question means for diagnosis and intervention. The discussion contrasts transdiagnostic, emotion-focused models with EMDR’s information-processing framework, exploring how adverse life experiences, affect regulation, and learning shape vulnerability across anxiety, mood, and trauma-related conditions. Participants are invited to rethink DSM categories, consider temperament as a clinical target, and reflect on where different therapeutic models converge in addressing emotional suffering at its roots.

- This short course explores how films and movie clips can be used as therapeutic tools to evoke insight, emotional regulation, and change without direct instruction. Participants learn how cinematic scenes naturally engage attention, imagination, and identification, creating trance-like states that can support reframing, resource activation, and self-hypnosis. Through theory, clinical examples, and film excerpts, the session shows how movies can function as modern metaphors that help clients access strengths, shift stuck narratives, and move forward in a way that feels intuitive and engaging.

- Short Description:
- This workshop explores a unified approach to treating anxiety, depression, and related emotional disorders by working directly with how people respond to their own emotions. Participants learn how patterns like avoidance, suppression, and fear of internal experience keep symptoms going, and how therapy can interrupt those cycles across diagnoses.

- Short Description:
- This point–counterpoint session takes on how psychological disorders should be classified and what those choices mean for therapy. The discussion contrasts diagnosis-based categories with dimensional, transdiagnostic models that emphasize temperament, emotion regulation, and shared mechanisms across anxiety and mood disorders. Participants hear a thoughtful debate on vulnerability versus resilience, the role of self-efficacy and attachment, and how research on emotion, learning, and control can reshape both assessment and treatment. The session invites clinicians to rethink diagnosis not as an endpoint, but as a guide to more flexible, principle-driven intervention.

The session shows how tools like daily motivation practice, planned flexibility, and “no choice” thinking can strengthen follow-through and help clients build a sustainable relationship with eating rather than cycling through diets.

Drawing on social psychology, it unpacks processes like moral disengagement, dehumanization, diffusion of responsibility, and euphemistic language, showing how they operate in war, corporations, media, punishment systems, and everyday institutions. For therapists and students, it offers a powerful framework for understanding aggression, conscience, and ethical breakdown, with clear implications for clinical work, social responsibility, and prevention.
