What is Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)?

ACT is a mindfulness-based therapy that helps you develop psychological flexibility by:

  1. Accepting Difficult Emotions: Learning to make room for uncomfortable feelings without judgment.

  2. Clarifying Values: Identifying what truly matters to you.

  3. Taking Committed Action: Aligning your actions with your values, even in the face of challenges.

  4. Practicing Mindfulness: Staying present and engaged in the moment.

ACT is particularly effective for individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. Learn more about ACT from the American Psychological Association.
