The particularity of this model is its applicability to a wide range of disorders, whether acute or chronic. The aim of the workshop is to demonstrate effective skills to facilitate the treatment of chronic conditions and clients with personality disorders with a particular focus on the experience of the core principles of mindfulness meditation.
