Whether you are a new or experienced clinician, incorporating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) into your practice can have significant positive affects on your clients (and yourself). ACT is an empirically supported therapeutic approach used successfully with people experiencing a range of life challenges including low mood, anxiety, and internal conflict through to mental illness and addiction. ACT draws on behavioural and mindfulness principles to help people move past self-critical thoughts and painful emotions, and move towards committed action and change.
