This paper focuses on German-speaking countries (and is in German), but I'm sure many of the principles are more widely applicable so take a look!

Looking forward to hearing about the amazing work from Mar Rus-Calafell at her "State of the Art" lecture "Innovations in Early Psychosis: Integrating Research, Treatment, and Lived Experience" at #DPK2026 !
Great to see another paper documenting and investigating intrusive #mentalimagery in the context of chronic pain:
"A prospective diary study of chronic pain-related intrusive mental imagery: “trolls climbing up my spine with ice axes” and other vivid images"

What a privilege to present a "State of the Art" talk "Accelerating the Development of Psychological Interventions" just now at the German Psychotherapy Conference!
Thank you very much to the organisers for inviting me, and the audience for their great questions! #DPK2026 @dpk-kongress.bsky.social
