ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy)

ACT Therapy empowers individuals to embrace their challenges and move forward, leaving behind the weight of negativity. Psychologists who practice ACT often prioritize mindfulness as a foundational skill, recognizing how acceptance and commitment open pathways to meaningful, goal-directed action.
The core objective of ACT is to help individuals focus on what truly matters to them internally. By cultivating essential psychological skills, ACT guides people to confront and work through painful thoughts and emotions, revealing valuable insights into personal values and aspirations. This goal-oriented and solution-focused therapy systematically supports clients in creating a life that aligns with their values, ultimately fostering resilience and self-awareness

In this course, learners will explore the principles of ACT, grounded in scientifically validated research. Key objectives of ACT include reducing the impact of negative thoughts and fostering psychological flexibility through tools such as metaphor and metonymy.

Learners will gain insights into:

• Developing focused behaviors and psychological awareness
• Accepting and managing challenging thoughts and emotions
• Cultivating a balanced self-perspective
• Connect with and focus on the present moment
• Identifying and aligning with personal values
• Committing meaningful action

The course will also feature case studies to illustrate practical applications of ACT principles in real-world scenarios.
