Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) provides a powerful framework for getting clients unstuck and helping them live a more meaningful, values-guided life.
In The ACT Flip Chart, clinicians will find a variety of interactive tools and exercises that bring the six core elements of ACT to life:
- Self-as-context
- Defusion
- Experiential acceptance
- Present-moment awareness
- Values
- Committed action
The chart's engaging and easy-to-use nature makes it ideal for helping clients to:
- Develop psychological flexibility
- Let go of ineffective behaviors
- Connect with their values
- Become more present and aware
- Relate differently to distressing thoughts and difficult emotions
- Take values-based action in the face of discomfort
- And more!
Included you will find:
- 22 full-color diagrams on client-facing pages
- Additional explanations and sample scripts on each corresponding therapist-facing page
- Dry-erase client pages for easy markup, customization, and reuse!
