Acceptance And Commitment Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a form of psychotherapy that focuses on helping individuals accept their thoughts and feelings rather than fighting or feeling guilty about them. It encourages people to be present in the moment and to recognize their emotions without judgment. This approach aims to increase psychological flexibility, allowing individuals to adapt to challenging situations.
ACT also emphasizes the importance of committing to personal values and taking action toward meaningful goals. By aligning actions with values, individuals can lead more fulfilling lives, even in the face of difficulties. This therapy combines mindfulness techniques with behavioral change strategies to promote overall well-being.
