Course overview

Have you ever felt tired as a clinician of battling people's negative thoughts and feelings? Or felt like you're not sure what you're doing is working? This 3 hour intro to Acceptance and Commitment Therapy will give some insight into how this process-based therapy takes a different approach to helping clients by not trying to change them, but rather helping them to get back in touch with their own agency through acceptance, mindfulness and a greater focus on what makes their life meaningful. We'll cover the basics of ACT, including the six core processes and how they move clients from an inflexible orientation to life to a more psychologically flexible one. We'll also get experiential and learn some helpful interventions that can get you started in increasing your and your clients' openness, awareness, and engagement in your lives.
