The goal of this approach is to help clients overcome resistance to experiencing their true feelings that are too frightening and/or painful.

Mindfulness approaches help clients to be focused in the here and now. Generally rooted in Eastern meditative techniques,  Mindfulness approaches offer a non-judgmental alternative therapy for dealing with stress and other psychological issues.

By observing worrisome thoughts and learning to accept situations for what they are, people can learn to cope with issues better and make more productive choices.

Mindfulness approaches include a range of models, including dialectical behaviour therapy,  mindfulness-based stress reduction, and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy. These approaches can be used in a wide range of settings to reduce the symptoms of a broad spectrum of psychological issues.  These therapies can be practiced effectively in individual or group therapy.

Inferential Behaviour Therapy is a newer treatment for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder - OCD, which moves away from exposure and response prevention to view OCD as a problem of inference, rather than anxiety management, which effectively explains a broader range of OCD subtypes. It's easier to deploy and gets better results faster, in controlled trials.
