My guest today is Dr. Steven C. Hayes. Steven Hayes is an Emeritus Professor of Psychology at the University of Nevada, Reno and President of the Institute for Better Health, a 45-year old charitable organization dedicated to better mental and behavioral health. With 47 books and nearly 700 scientific articles published, Dr. Hayes is one of the most cited psychologists in the world as he continues to innovate in the field of psychology. He is the developer of Relational Frame Theory (RFT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
Some of the topics we explore include:
- The launching of the PsychFlex and Mindgrapher apps
- How this opens the potential for 24/7 integration of treatment
- The ways we can better attend to often ignored client issues
- The limitations of the DSM and its history
- Moving away from a one size fits all approach to treatment
- The current development of new data sets and statistical methods
- Hope for the future of behavioral health and helping people
