When engaging in ACT, your psychologist will teach you acceptance, defusion and mindfulness techniques that enable you to stop struggling with unhelpful thoughts and feelings. We will help you to identify your values and commit to actions that enable you to live a rich and meaningful life.
Most people who engage in ACT find that they can apply their new knowledge and techniques to many areas of their life and relationships, leading to an overall sense of improved wellbeing.
ACT can be helpful in a wide range of mental health conditions including depression, anxiety, stress and OCD. It can be used to enable you to explore and commit to life goals such as improving fitness or changing career. ACT can also be a useful therapy for working through relationship difficulties.
