The FACE© model and program (Facilitating Adjustment of Cognitions and Emotions): Cognitive Control and Emotion Regulation to Face Stress in Children and Adults. More at Centre F.A.C.E. Centrum
The FACE©-model draws on neuroscientific insights that the
reciprocal adjustments between cognitive and emotional processes are at the
core of behavioural and relational responses to single or recurrent sources of
stress, anxiety and trauma. These insights are integrated in a bio-psycho-social
developmental psychopathology model.
In multi-site research (in collaboration with the
Netherlands and France), we investigate selective aspects of cognitive control
and emotional regulation throughout the life span. We examine how to facilitate children's, adolescents' and families’ cognitive and emotional adjustments to sources of stress on individual and contextual levels.
The FACE©-program translates these research insights into
practice by implementing systematized prevention/intervention protocols for
children, adolescents and their families. The FACE©-program for cognitive-emotional adjustments is also applied in pre- and postgraduate training, professional continuing education and mental health services consultancy. Child self-expression and family assessment tools are conceived and operationalized to this regard.
Topics:
- Emotion regulation throughout the life span
