Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a form of psychotherapy that combines mindfulness, acceptance strategies, and behavior change techniques to help individuals live meaningful lives while managing difficult thoughts and emotions.
Cognitive Diffusion – Learning to detach from and observe thoughts rather than being controlled by them.
Acceptance – Allowing thoughts, feelings, and emotions to be as they are rather than trying to suppress or change them.
Present Moment Awareness (Mindfulness) – Staying fully engaged in the present instead of ruminating on the past or worrying about the future.
Self-as-Context – Recognizing that you are not just your thoughts or feelings; you have thoughts and emotions, but they do not define you.
Values Clarification – Identifying what truly matters to you in life and using those values as a guide for making decisions.
Committed Action – Taking meaningful action in alignment with your values, even in the presence of discomfort or fear.
ACT is an interactive treatment approach that has been proven in clinical studies to be highly effective in reducing stress, anxiety, and depression in cancer survivors.
