Description
A CBT-practitioner's Guide to ACT: Bridging the Gap Between Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy by Joseph Ciarrochi and Ann Bailey. This book provides a unique approach for CBT practitioners looking to integrate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) into their practice. By exploring the shared philosophical underpinnings of functional contextualism, the authors aim to help bridge the gap between ACT and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). This guide offers practical insights and theoretical implications, highlighting areas where ACT and CBT differ in their predictions and suggesting directions for future research. By adopting a unified approach that shares the same core principles, practitioners can unify ACT and CBT, dropping mechanistic philosophical cores and focusing on what is useful. The book provides valuable information about how clients might be cognitively fused and how this fusion can be undermined, offering a practical framework for integrating these therapies.
