Which ACT techniques for chronic pain patients do you use?

I would like to read ideas and references on this issue.

If one is able to meet the demand; perceived or real, physical/psychological, based on Physics (stress applied to an object/act) and NeuroPhysiology, if that action or demand at a psychological or cellular level is possible to be carried out without straining the internal cell structure/s excessively so it is NOT out of homeostasis or balance; is the Demand of the subject/object or action is still STRESS??

I want to find evidence of the relationship.

The field of counseling differentiates itself by focusing on a client's strengths and overall wellness. We believe that clients can come in for help with major mental illness or to simply improve or maintain their quality of life. But do we do a thorough job of teaching that in our programs? When our students go into the field, do they carry that wellness orientation with them?

Many secondary source texts do not address the evolution of Alfred Adler's theory; that is, his movement from psychoanalysis to his later (1920 - 37) theory and practice ideas that integrate cognitive, constructivist, existential-humanistic, systemic, and psychodynamic perspectives. Much of contemporary psychology, psychotherapy, and counseling is replete with Adler's ideas although they use different nomenclature and almost never mention Alfred Adler.  Albert Ellis stated that "Adler, perhaps more than Freud, is true father of modern psychotherapy."  The existential psychiatrist, Henri Ellenberger, said that no author's work has been used more and acknowledged less than Alfred Adler.  The theory textbooks by Corey and Prochaska and Norcross echo the statements by Ellis and Ellenberger.

Pastoral counseling setting

Dear colleagues,

My Masters programme in Counselling Psychology advents next week, and I am looking to explore the potential of gamification of counselling through critical evaluation of existing models and assumptions with regard to the same. Lacking access to subjects or possible experimental and empirical data, I wish to keep the paper largely essay-oriented.

Is this feasible/a professionally sound idea?

Any help will be appreciated! Thank you.

Give the general steps to be followed despite the theoretical orientation of the counsellor.
