We both live and breathe PCBH and contextual approaches (e.g., Acceptance and Commitment Therapy)

Who we are

Who you are?What is your professional background?◦ Clinician

◦ Administrator

◦ Research or academia?

Are you familiar with contextual approaches?◦ Yes

◦ Kinda

◦ What the hell is contextualism, I wanted to learn about ACT!!!

Before we begin…Surreal moments in life…

After this presentation you will know Contextualism and how to complete and make up metaphors on the spot… ◦ Maybe instead you will want to learn more, we can help with that!

…Our why of contextualism and PCBH

Contextualism in a nutshell

It’s a matter of context…Behaviors do not happen in vacuums◦ Symptoms arise due to one’s context, thus, for us to intervene appropriately we must

understand the context

◦ What if instead of focusing on what shows up at 5 PM (symptoms), we focus on what show’s up at 8 AM (the person’s context)

What happens when we start to do this?◦ Disorders and pathologies go away… It makes sense why this is here!

Why contextualism and PCBHWhat are the goals of PCBH?◦ Population based

◦ See anything and everything

◦ Need to intervene quickly

◦ Needs to be transdiagnositc

◦ …the question almost becomes, why NOT contextualism and PCBH

Everything is a response to context…◦ Depression, anxiety, diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure

How does ACT/FACT relate to contextualism?ACT and FACT are rooted in the philosophy of functional contextualism

Okay, I am with you, context is importantBut, bro, I got 20 – 30 minutes with a patient… what you are asking takes at least an hour◦ Yeah, we had the same thought…

What if there was a way to gather the context intentionally, systematically, and sequentially…◦ I give you the Contextual Interview

Contextual interviewLove, Work, Play & Health Behaviors; 3 T’s

LOVE◦ Living Situation

◦ Relationship

◦ Family

◦ Friends

◦ Spiritual, community life?

Work/School◦ Work/school situation

Play ◦ Fun/Hobbies

◦ Relaxation

Health Behaviors◦ Exercise

◦ Sleep

◦ Substance use (alcohol, drugs, cigarettes, caffeine)

◦ Sex

◦ Diet, supplements, medications?

3 T’s◦ Time, Trigger, Trajectory

Initial visit: Contextual InterviewOur story…

Every.Single.Time◦ Depression – Yep, Anxiety – Yep, Treatment Adherence – Yep, DM – Yep… you get the point

◦ Need to practice

Most radical shift in our clinical practice… interventions are great but the CI is paramount

Same sequence and in the same order every time◦ Why?

Not a checklist, but a story builder◦ Symptoms/behaviors do not happen in vacuums, they happen in a context

◦ We cannot intervene without knowing the context

Teach both our psychology interns/fellows and our residents to do this

Hold on…What if I only have 5 minutes???

What if the patient does not want these questions asked?

How does learning about the individual’s relationship impact their DM?

Alright… I’m intrigued I can maybe consider doing the CI… but what about interventions?

Why I love PCBH◦ It makes you use all of your skills

◦ The ninjas of the BH providers

◦ Have to be quick, intentional, radical, outside the box

How do I implement an intervention that encompasses all of the ACT hexaflex or FACT pillars?◦ … you guessed it… metaphors

Metaphors to utilize We have some for you!◦ The Movie of Self-Compassion

◦ The Program

◦ Three Little Pigs

◦ The Baseball Pitcher or Boxer

◦ Sunburn

How can I make ones up myself?Let’s practice…

How can I get my clinic to be more contextual?Contextual Interview trainings

When completing feedback loop, talk about the context
