Episode 235 | Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

In today's episode of Psych Talk I discuss Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I provide a brief overview of the history of ACT, its main goals, and what mental health conditions it is effective for. I then discuss the primary goal of ACT, cognitive flexibility, and discuss in depth the opposite of this, cognitive rigidity, and six ways cognitive rigidity may manifest. I then discuss the Hexa-Flex, which includes the six core components of ACT - contact with the present moment, cognitive defusion, experiential acceptance, self as context, values, and committed action - and discuss what each of these is, their goals, and some interventions for each.
