ACT is an evidence-based, 3rd wave Cognitive Behavioral therapy for a wide range of mental health issues, such as depression, anxiety, trauma, and chronic pain. ACT embraces change through acceptance of what cannot be changed. If one cannot "get rid of" mental health symptoms, then what? ACT focuses on fully living a value-filled life with all the pain and messiness that requires.

Though out this interactive and introspective training, participants will be challenged to learn ACT through applying ACT strategies to themselves. Participants should attend with a willingness to be honest and genuine in the spirit of living their own value of becoming an incredible therapist.
