Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

  • Woodfords Ciub 179 Woodford Street Portland, ME, 04103 United States (map)

Clients get stuck; helpers get stuck with them. They get stuck in their feelings, thoughts, stories and repetitive behavioral patterns, called psychological rigidity. Persistent psychological rigidity can be seen as the core of most mental disorders. Help your clients get unstuck by learning skills of psychological flexibility. Watch your clients get out of their heads and move toward living well regardless of the diagnosis.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) views clients as stuck rather than sick and occasional psychological rigidity and experiential avoidance as a part of the human condition. ACT is an accepted evidenced based practice helping clients with a wide range of emotional, psychological and behavioral difficulties. It combines the wisdom and effectiveness of motivational interviewing, mindfulness practices and behavioral activation. More INFO and REGISTER
