Abstract
Transdiagnostic approaches to psychological treatment offer the opportunity to consider common processes across seemingly disparate disorders. Although psychological distress exhibits dramatic variability across individuals, it is possible to discern common underlying processes. One of these processes is internal perceptual conflict. Perceptual Control Theory (PCT) provides an explanation for the manifestation and also the resolution of this conflict. A therapeutic approach called the Method of Levels (MOL) has been developed from PCT principles. MOL promotes the reorganization of conflict by shifting an individual's awareness to meta, or more fundamental, goal states. This paper explains PCT and MOL and concludes by describing early empirical evidence for MOL.
