More about Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ACT involves six processes:

• Values
• Committed Action
• Cognitive Defusion
• Being Present
• Self as Context
• Acceptance

For the official description of these processes, Contextual Science is the place to go.

ACT uses a number of metaphors to explain and describe and work through these six processes. So, I’m going to give you some examples to illustrate what this all means. 

I’ve described “Values” in another post, but will briefly discuss it hear again.
