“To me, a life well lived is one filled with meaningful relationships – the kind that are sustained through a mutual desire to stay connected, as opposed to a felt sense of obligation.” ― Albert Ellis

What is ACT?

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a transdiagnostic approach to treat mental health challenges linked to psychological rigidity. With over a thousand and randomized control trials demonstrating the effectiveness of this intervention, ACT’s primary goal is to promote psychological flexibility while maximizing self-responsibility and active engagement in one’s life.

ACT teaches six core skills that help become psychologically flexible:

Present moment awareness
Acceptance
Cognitive defusion
Self-as-context
Values
Comitted actions
