Six (6) Week ACT Skills Training for Therapists, Coaches, and Health Care Professionals
This six week training will cover the six core processes of ACT - a contextually focused form of behavioral psychotherapy that utilizes mindfulness and behavioral activation to increase clients' psychological flexibility.
Empirical evidence demonstrates ACT’s effectiveness in treating a wide range of disorders, from anxiety, depression, and PTSD, to chronic pain, eating disorders and substance abuse. Effective with individuals, couples and groups, ACT helps clients to live in the present moment, connect with their values, and effectively handle painful thoughts, feelings, memories, sensations and urges.
Studies have shown that ACT training increases provider effectiveness and REDUCES BURNOUT. The group is experiential and participants will have an opportunity to discuss cases. Like riding a bike you will gain skills to begin implementing ACT into your professional and personal life
