Principles for a Responsible Integration of Mindfulness in Individual Therapy
Mindfulness April 29, 2019 J. Michalak, C. Crane, C. Germer et al.
An expert group developed guidelines for responsibly integrating mindfulness practices into individual therapy, informed by a literature review. Recommendations address types of integration, suitable diagnoses, therapist qualifications, case formulation, the inquiry process, optimal practice types and duration, managing difficult experiences, and training programs. The authors note that research on this topic is scarce, so the recommendations are tentative and intended to stimulate further discussion.
