About ADEPT Psychology

The mental health care system is broken. . The people who need care the most don’t get it, and those who receive it don’t get what they need. At best they’re taught how to cope better. Their lives don’t become better. . Good natural therapists enter grad school full of empathy and idealism, and leave it full of self-doubt and trepidation. They enroll with an intuitive understanding of people, and graduate scared. . Spirituality receives lip service, and then only during required multicultural studies classes emphasizing respect for others’ religions. Religion and spirituality are never distinguished. Starting with the realization that emotions are central to everything we do in life, Applied Dynamic Emotional Processing Theory (ADEPT) was developed to focus quickly and directly on clients' emotional lives, rather than on something else that affects their emotional lives. ADEPT Psychology applies the theory and trains therapists in its use. Unlike the theories most therapists learn in grad school, ADEPT was grounded in basic research rather than using research to justify it. It treats symptoms as defensive maneuvers. It understands that meaning and purpose, rather than being a separate aspect of life, are intricately involved in people’s emotional lives. Meaning and purpose are discovered as a felt sense that regulates painful and challenging emotions. ADEPT Psychology helps therapists through three distinct, sequential programs: (1) Foundation teaches therapists how emotions, spirituality, and the change process actually work. (2) Transformation grounds therapists in their own higher meaning and purpose, so their therapeutic power and skill increases. (3) Application teaches therapists advanced techniques that make changes faster, deeper, and more enduring. To learn more, please visit http://adeptpsychology.com.
