Could you elaborate on what you are pointing at here with an example? I’m unable to figure out what “core transformation for cognitive processing” would look like and what “act therapy for behavioral processing” would look like, even though I have some familiarity with all four concept clusters.
Yeah, so if I’m dealing with something that primarily manifests as mental events, internal talk, weird belief structures, emotional reactions etc, I’ll tend to work on that with core transformation. If what I’m noticing seems to be mostly behavioral with only a minor mental component (I might have emotional reactions about the behavior, but it feel like the behavior is primary), I’ll tend to use ACT concepts. I might switch from one to the other in the process of ‘rolling out’ any particular thing, behaviors and cognition are entangled after all, but it’s where I tend to start.
