About ACT

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) uses acceptance and mindfulness strategies, together with commitment and behaviour change strategies, to increase psychological flexibility. The aim of ACT is to maximise our potential for a rich, full and meaningful life by developing health, vitality and well-being.

​

ACT has an increasingly strong evidence base, with over 20 randomised controlled trials across a variety of mental health issues. Our therapists use ACT to enhance treatment and our therapists have completed extensive training with Russ Harris in ACT for anxiety, grief and depression.
