Metacognitive Therapy for Psychosis
Emily Gagen, PhD
Dr. Gagen will review a metacognitive framework for understanding psychosis and will discuss a specific psychotherapeutic intervention, Metacognition Reflection and Insight Therapy. We will discuss the definition of metacognition and the four main domains that are measured, the relationship between metacognitive capacity and psychological distress, and the research evidence that supports this approach.
