Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a cognitive-behavioral intervention that focuses on helping individuals accept that the feelings they are struggling with are valid and understandable in the face of difficult life situations. This acceptance enables the individual to stop avoiding or resisting these emotions and commit to acknowledging and accepting them.Â
The Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) technique is based on the idea that we tend to avoid, fight or control uncomfortable feelings and past experiences, which can get in the way of making changes to improve the situation.Â
ACT uses your history, personal goals, and values to develop a plan and commitment to change that is unique to you.Â
If you or someone you know would benefit from cognitive behavioral therapy, please don’t hesitate to contact us today. We would be happy to discuss how we can assist you.
