Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (Prof. Bleyenberg, Dr. Gielissen, NKCV- Nijmegen) 2. Mindfulness Based Cognitieve Therapie (MBCT) (van der Lee, Garssen) Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy MBCT MBCT changes automatic pilot Paying attention in the present moment, non-judgementally Less experiental avoidance, less automatic behaviour Insight into thoughts, feelings and behaviour that increases fatigue and stress Relational Frame theory: Hayes Cognitive control strategies to avoid unwanted states Thought suppression Worried rumination Distraction Internal and external control maintains distress/fatigue or causes rebound Acceptance based therapy assumptions: Emotions are just emotions; thoughts are just thoughts; memories are just memories Emotions are information; not good or bad Control of internal events is not an option Control is the problem, not the solution 2

3 Difference with CBT: Attention CBT emphasizes directing attention toward stimuli associated with disorder (or distract from) ABT emphasizes directing attention broadly toward flow of experience Difference with CBT: Cognition radically different understanding of the role of cognition in development and treatment of disorders Cognitions are causal vs. cognitions are responses Importance of content vs. importance of function Goal to change content vs. goal to change relationship to one s own thoughts and feelings Steps in Mindfulness training: Practice attention to a single sense Practice attention to the flow of experience Practice attention to thoughts, feelings, images as part of the flow of experience Practice attention to the flow of experience during activities Mechanisms in Mindfulness: Exposure to avoided emotional experience, leading to decreased distress via extinction Self-monitoring associated with improved appraisal of actual contingencies, leading to increased flexibility in responding State of relaxation (Baer, 2003; Teasdale et al. 2002; Segal et al. 2002) Assessing Fatigue Checklist Individual Strength (CIS) Ik voel me moe Ik ben gauw moe Ik voel me fit Lichamelijk voel ik me uitgeput Mindfulness Based Cognitieve therapie 1.

7 Reasons to choose for online treatment prettig om aan problemen te kunnen werken op elk moment van de dag of nacht, in plaats van te moeten wachten op een afspraak waar ik mijn therapeut zie 55 % ik woon ver weg van een instelling die hulp aan kankerpatiënten biedt 29 % ik ben niet of nauwelijks in staat om te reizen 23 % Conclusion First results are good Patients value the possibility to work on their problem in their own time Patients value their personal contact with their therapist More people drop out than face-to-face Obviously more research needs to be done: New research projects KWF/Alped Huzes finance our new research project: a randomized controlled trial where we compare online MBCT with ambulant activity and with a control group. We will also study the role of patient s expectations and working mechanisms of both interventions. Questions? Ik ben minder vaak moe en als ik last heb van vermoeidheid is dit niet meer zo'n allesoverheersende, uitputtende vermoeidheid. Ik doe veel meer, zowel qua werk als in mijn vrije tijd. Ik ben rustiger en meer tevreden. Ik stel minder hoge eisen aan mezelf en probeer meer te genieten van hoe het loopt en heb niet meer torenhoge verwachtingen. De training heeft me opgeleverd dat ik minder moe ben. Dat ik bewuster met de vermoeidheid en de daarbij behorende emoties omga. Meer aandacht aan mezelf schenk. 7

8 Dat ik soms wat negatief over mezelf denk, wist ik wel, maar dat ik zoveel negatieve gedachten heb, daarvan was ik me nou ook weer niet bewust. De training heeft mij een groot cadeau gegeven namelijk rust in mijn hoofd. Anderen merken dat ook, zo hoor ik vaak. Ik ben nu tevreden met mijn leven met beperkingen. Heel belangrijk is ook dat ik me niet meer laat meeslepen door gedachten en gevoelens. Ontdekken hoe boos ik eigenlijk voortdurend was, was een moeilijk moment in de training.
