Am I getting a reminder about the dues? I need one b/c I want to get up with ACT. Bill ... From: acceptanceandcommitmenttherapy@yahoogroups.com ...
I received the email below back-channel. The sender was happy for me to send it on to the list, as long as she remained anonymous. I think it's a useful ...
Lovely post from our anonymous poster. It is so presumptuous to "know" what clients should and shouldn't do. A hard marriage I treated was the genesis of this...
Dear All, Does any one have references showing mediational studies of the hypothesized mediators of change in CT don’t pan out (as well as studies where they...
Oooopsy! Didn’t realise there was a quick and easy way to fetch this with the help of the listserve search feature on the site! To atone, here’s a little...

I'm not sure what we are talking about anymore, but I'd like to reel the discussion in some and stay on track with the case study of a person who chooses to...
This message (sent a few days ago) did not seem post because I am playing around with a gmail account to see if spam etc is easier to manage there and now...
I think it is time to drop this one. I found your comments regarding Russ's work (whoever he is) offensive. I would be honored to be able to do work like he...
Is the ACT practitioner valueless? It seems to me that Steve H is on- target regarding the question of action. Action is what drives the preferred outcome of...
Just train and then pray? Let's to hope to hell that's not all we do! And yet, sadly, this is a legitimate concern, as are the others here-- I've seen the...
Steve, It seems to me that an ACT therapist's valued actions are aimed at creating a therapeutic context that enhances clients' psychological flexibility. ...
Steve, I would like to address the language of ACT as it might be perceived in a public forum. Since public media thrives on short snippets of language,...
You are focusing here in your answers on the client -- which is fine, but the questions are far easier viewed that way. After all, the very concept of ...

Steve, You are right of course, I am focusing on the client level. When folks come to us in our therapist role, therapy is what we do. Now that "YOU" or "ME"...
Here are some ways I've talked about this that might do the trick in some circumstances, at least in English. Acceptance means giving your permission, which...
Hi all...has anyone attempted an integration of Bioenergetics with ACT? I am interested in Lowen's work, it seems mindfulness-based to me, but I don't yet see...

How about when ACT goes beyond therapy? If you were going to design an ACT protocol to reduce racism, would you stop at the action level and just let folks...

Steve - yes I did mean to send my response to the list. Thanks for letting me know that I didn't. Now to your second question... I think we are in agreement...
Hi all, I am choosing to respond to Steve's response to this thread, as he ends with some comments I find particularly poignant and beautiful: "There is a...
Steve, I think the first thing we need to do is change our stance from "against racism" to designing a social influence protocol promoting tolerance. Since we...
Yes, these are great ideas and I think we need more of them. Some of the language in ACT is unfortunately linked with some fairly loaded terms, and you are not...
