Description

This list serves as a forum for scientists, scholars, practitioners, and students to discuss Acceptance and Commitment Theory (ACT) with therapist, practitioners, and consultants who work with kids, parents, families, and teachers. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a unique empirically based psychological intervention that uses acceptance and mindfulness strategies, together with commitment and behavior change strategies, to increase psychological flexibility. Psychological flexibility means contacting the present moment fully as a conscious human being, and based on what the situation affords, changing or persisting in behavior in the service of chosen values.
