Description
ACT for Psychosis Recovery: A Practical Manual for Group-Based Interventions Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
This groundbreaking guide provides a step-by-step approach to group work with clients suffering from psychosis, using evidence-based acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). With ACT, patients can learn to stay grounded in the present moment, disengage from their symptoms, and pursue personally meaningful lives based on their values.
Facilitating ACT groups is made accessible through a central metaphor, "Passengers on the Bus", which introduces mindfulness and values-based action in an engaging and memorable way. The book also provides tips and strategies to help clients identify valued directions, respond flexibly to psychotic symptoms, and lead workshops that promote compassion and connection among participants.
