Description
Discover how to live a healthier life by changing your relationship with painful thoughts and feelings. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy For Dummies shows you how to identify negative thinking patterns and apply ACT principles to create a more meaningful existence.
Closely connected to Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, ACT is an evidence-based therapy that uses acceptance and mindfulness strategies mixed with commitment and behaviour-changing techniques to help increase psychological flexibility in both personal and professional life. This straightforward guide helps you target unpleasant feelings without getting caught up in them.
With Acceptance and Commitment Therapy For Dummies, you'll learn how to banish unhelpful thoughts, make room for painful feelings, engage fully with your here-and-now experience, and cope with anxiety, depression, stress, OCD, and psychosis. Perfect for those looking to practice self-care or seeking guidance from an ACT therapist.
