Description
Learning ACT: An Acceptance & Commitment Therapy Skills Training Manual for Therapists by Jason B. Luoma, Steven C. Hayes and Robyn D. Walser provides a comprehensive update to the pioneering skills-training manual for clinicians.
This second edition of Learning ACT includes up-to-date exercises and references, as well as material on traditional, evidence-based behavioral techniques for use within the ACT framework. The book offers workbook-format exercises to help you understand and take advantage of ACT's unique six process model, both as a tool for diagnosis and case conceptualization, and as a basis for structuring treatments for clients.
With this revised edition, you'll find new experiential exercises, an increased focus on functional analysis, and downloadable extras that include role-played examples of the core ACT processes in action. By practicing the exercises in this workbook, you'll learn how this powerful modality can improve clients' psychological flexibility and help them to live better lives.
